require? No. (My message was badly worded, though)

It *has* to work with 1.67. Which is what is done with 1.66 as baseline
which is OK for me then :)

Well, and then a patch gets applied in master and backported to -6-4 or
even -6-3 and breaks this again.... (-6-4 is where people noticed after
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?h=libreoffice-6-4&id=73cac1031131021819a0fbd4d60554196aea230c

So yes, I think this should be backported.
