Ah, OK. That is indeed a fix for an important bug. Not knowing the mm code very well, I'm not in a position to judge whether it's safe enough for a -stable stream or not. If it is and it could be done safely without relying on 3/4, that would seem safer to me, but it is not a strong opinion.
Thanks, Roland
