Of course, imo it should be backported to the 0.5 branch. But look
around and you will surely find more such bugfixes, 100l commits etc.

Well thats what happens then, debian maintains their own patchset, so
does gentoo, which imho isnt desirable. So probably we should decide
how much maintenance work will go into these labelled tarballs we have
