More likely a redeployment of some of the 1,257 personnel at Leica to 
whittle down the backlog of M9 repairs amd prep up the new M, especially 
bearing in mind the issues highlighted here and on other parts of the 
internet. Many of those M9 owners are the potential buyers for the M so they 
have to keep them happy.

Leica is like a football manager - lose the crowd and you lose the job - and 
right now the level of cat calling is getting louder. They'll have to act 
fast to damp down the moaning.
