There’s been some list discussion but my overall concern is that we can’t clearly explain why some develop testers are broken and others are working okay. The commit completely broke Darwin, Debian, FreeBSD, QNX and Windows. But what’s really worrying is that some RHEL testers are still merrily cycling while other RHEL testers are broken. Same for Ubuntu, some are cycling okay while some are broken. I think it’s too risky to apply a patch when we, honestly I, don’t understand why this is happening.

Is not the pull request just in the developer branch ? In that case you
could leave the pull request as is and try to solve it without affecting
the master branch at all.
