I am not entirely sure why my question was understood as some kind of
aggression, that was certainly not my intention.


> When is the fix getting backported from -STABLE to 8.1 as an errata fix?
I think this a normal, valid question?

> A lot of people cannot and will not update to 8.1 before this is fixed
This is a simple fact.

> and no, "just track -STABLE" is not a valid answer
Just pre-empting the usual expected "just update to -STABLE to get
your fix" responces. This is not a valid solution for a lot of users
out there.
