"because of that, we ended up showing <<what incorrect result in what situation>>" would be a nice thing to have here, so that it can be copied to the release notes for the bugfix. How far back a release do we want to make this fix applicable? It seems that it applies cleanly to maint-2.13 without breaking from my quick test, so that is probably where I'll queue this, even though we may no longer issue further maintenance releases on that track. Any comment from submodule folks? Sorry that I didn't notice this was left unattended by anybody til now. Will queue while waiting for those who are into submodules to respond. Thanks.
