Including moving the arch tag, I suppose.

I don't think we really should sync anything from the release branch
for now. Fixes should make their way from the trunk to the release
branch, not the other way round. And they should be few enough that
synching them manually between ChangeLog and ChangeLog should be
workable (arch would presumably want to synch between ChangeLog.12 and
ChangeLog).

Base of release branch would be my preference.

We should do this before any branch merge, I think.
