   What is "this"?   
   Please don't put your keywords in the subject without mentioning them   
   inside the post. Some people don't read subjects.   
      
   As to your question:   
   It will stabilize when it is time for it. BUT: that is whenever you   
   like.   
   In most cases upstream launches a release (which is considered   
   "stable" by upstream, otherwise they wouldn't release it), which then   
   enters the portage tree, but marked as "unstable". It is tested for   
   some weeks and then marked "stable", as it doesn't brake anything.   
   So "stability" is just a question of the point of view.   
   If you like using openssh-4.6, put it   
   into /etc/portage/packages.keywords and emerge it.   
   See gentoo-wiki for more know-how on masked packages.
