Patch 1 fixes what is arguably a bug. I suspect it could cause crashes or very large latency under unusual circumstanes. Since it also deletes a bunch of code, I think it's a nice fix. Patch 2 is an ABI change/fix. Any user code that would be affected is currently buggy (i.e. results in incorrect option parsing), so I suspect it can be applied safely.
