Never.  Even bulding on top of 'next' is discouraged.  

Either "prepare a merge on top of 'master' with all the topics in
flight that you depend on, and base your series on top of it,
risking that any one of these topics can take your series hostage"
or "wait until these topics graduate and then base your topic on
'master'".  I'd vastly prefer the latter, as it would become
cumbersome if one of the topics you base your series on gets
rerolled.
