Exactly. And that is what is written in the changelog of the patch. But all that does not matter, the change results in more correct code than the current one is; and that is all that matters.
Sure, I see your point, and support your effort, but I don't think your arguments are related to this patch and you are hijacking something unrelated, which should be discussed in a separate mail thread, that's all.
