The 1.1.13 branch must remain stable for a long time, thus developers
are picky and careful about what gets backported to this branch.

I asked him if I may backport the patch, but if he doesn't agree,
there is nothing we can do about but applying the patch locally
and compiling ourself. That's what I'm doing.
