I have therefore queued it for 3.7.
I don't follow that; I would expect any serious bug fix (serious enough
for a stable update) to be acceptable for 3.6 at this point.
If the regression occurred in 3.3, then the cc lines should be something
like:
Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # 3.3+
and not the current:
Cc: 3.2.x.. <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
(Note, version annotations should be on the right of the address, not in
the 'real name' position on the left.)
