But I see no reason to do so otherwise. The question is whether this is worth backporting to stable. If yes then it makes to move it up the series. Keep it here otherwise. I think the failure is quite improbable and nobody complained so far. On the other hand this is an obvious bug fix so it should qualify for stable. I would wait for others for what they think and do the shuffling after all other patches are settled. I would rather be safe and push the fix pro-actively.
