OK, let me rephrase.
This change broke existing working code.
Can you point to any code that is fixed by the commit?
If not, I think the rule is you revert the changeset.
Or you can just mark the bug "Won't fix, perf tool doesn't use it" I guess
You guys told me to start running my tests in -rc1 so I can catch bugs early enough to fix things. So here I am, finding a problem in -rc1. If no one cares I'll stop bothering and go back to just documenting the problems after the fact in complaining webpages.
