I see on their code page that the Linux binaries uncovered some new bugs. I suspect that it may be another week or so to correct the bugs and make the Windows and Macintosh binaries.

RawTherapee 4.0.10 for Macintosh 64 bit, OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), is released:

Not sure why, but Windows executables for developmental RawTherapee (RT) are not yet available from the official source.

Fortunately, a former primary RT developer, still active as an experimenter, is posting the 64 bit Windows (Vista/7/8) compiles for RT 4.0.10.36 (the latest fairly stable beta developmental release).

(You do need to uninstall any previous RT installs first.)

I can vouch that the new noise reduction module is significantly improved, and may be the best single-pass NR for color noise (especially for pattern noise and salt-and-pepper color noise), although luminance detail definitely takes a hit at the best settings for color noise. For simple subject matter it can help save a 2-stop underexposure, but for subject matter with lots of fine detail it would only be a partial solution.

While this is not ready for production work, it is stable enough for testing and as a special-purpose tool.
