Emil Velikov announced the "emergency release" this morning of Mesa 12.0.3 as the latest stable installment for the Mesa 12.0 series.

Mesa 12.0.3 reverts an earlier commit (i965/miptree: Stop multiplying cube depth by 6 in HiZ) that was causing a number of regressions for all Intel devices powered by the i965 Mesa driver. Aside from that, was just updating a download URL and the preparations for tagging this immediate release.

Intel users wanting to upgrade to Mesa 12.0.3 can find the details via this mailing list post.
