It is an RC (Release Candidate) because we want to make a release for
people to download and test before the final 1.3.5 release. It will
NEVER EVER (repeat.. NEVER EVER) be classed as stable, even after 1.3.5
release.

You are supposed to depend on stable releases... ie 1.3.3.13 is the
current release and will still be the version to use for normal work
even after 1.3.5 is released. Use it, test it.. and if all goes well,
feel free to use it instead of 1.3.3.13.
