Where's the trac link to the change set? Is there a test for this? Is 
the test in the release branch also? What platforms does this impact? 
What other libraries does this impact? Are other libraries failing 
because of not having this change?

Sorry for all the questions, but we need to asses the risk. Especially 
for something that doesn't seem critical and should have been merge to 
release long ago ;-)
