Now I am confused. If you apply your patch on top of "master" then you
cannot create "rpm" on your platform, not because your patch is busted,
but because "master" lacks the documentation fix from that topic. Is that
what you mean?

If the reason the documentation fix for "master" is needed is because a
new feature scheduled for the upcoming release has broken documentation,
then wouldn't we need the fix before the release, whether you are working
on your patch or not? How can it be not urgent if that is the case?

On my boxes with recent Debian, Ubuntu, and F14, I am not suffering from
the lack of the workaround, but if distros need the workaround, then the
time to apply it is now, not post release.

Hmmm....
