While I don't consider becoming (semi-)official stable/8 maintainer, your
point is fair enough.  I'll review my queue of desired patches for it and
ask for appropriate src committer review and approval.

Just to make it clear, I did not imply that Glen or anyone else should get
busy with them, just wondered if they by chance already know whether these
fixes are applicable or not.
