I guess it depends on how much you need to respect your deadline. For instance close to the release date, our QA/Dev/Support managers will go through open issues, and push stuff that can't be closed in a timely matter to the next release. We finish up the more trivial stuff and get the release out. When you're making regular releases, postponing of some features and fixes is often better than missing your deadline.
Well, in our case I could just extend my last sentence with ", but the CEO does, nevertheless."
