The problem is on which branch we would apply this and how long
we will carry it.  I suspect you would have to have it forever
and everywhere.  After all your bisect can hit a version with
Git.xs and then next build suggested by bisect may be a version
without it.  And the user is doing that bisect long after we
release version 47.

The worst part is that the version bisect suggests that does not
have Git.xs may be a version in the past -- which we obviously
cannot apply your patch to.
