Hi John,
Probably not.

Since the bug is in mainline, not rt, ideally rt should
just wait for the fix you so graciously found for me to
enter mainline and propagate down to the various stable
trees.

That should be OK since the bug is more of an annoyance
rather than something critical, so I feel there is no rush
to get an official fix in.

For myself, I have applied the fix to my tree, and I will
delete it when and whenever it shows up in the mainline
branches I care about.

Joe
