Really sorry, but such a statement is simply intellectual bullshit. Unfortunately, it is not possible to formulate this in a more friendly yet unambiguous way.

But it's true.
One of my packages had a bundled library with 6 critical vulnerabilities
(outdated for 5 years). The upstream developers said they didn't care
because they needed their app to run under Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Fixed it
manually by switching to the packaged version.
Another package had bundled OpenSSL, which was 3 years out of date.
