The concern was that we weren't testing the result of that push yet and
that this change would be in effect merging that code into the main
tree, which ought to at least be done with the release manager's
awareness.

However it turns out that OSStest uses the latest qemu push gate
regardless of Config.mk -- which changes the equation somewhat -- we
should obviously update Config.mk to what we are testing.
