You need to compile from source. If you grab our hg repo following the
instructions on http://www.rabbitmq.com/build-server.html and before you
make hg up -C bug21673

Several people are using it and it is reasonably stable. However, there
are occasional issues found which I very gratefully receive (especially
if I can figure out how to reproduce them!). I'm always very interested
to hear how people are getting on with the new persister - whether
they're liking the behaviour they're seeing, so please do let us know.

Best wishes,

Matthew
