…the bug is a nice example how this is handled upstream (and that we wouldn't be alone tracking/fixing these regressions). Overall I'd feel more certain to fix these than to backport large invasive patches in order to fix CVE-2015-4000, CVE-2014-3566 and friends. Especially since we have abi-compliance-checker.
