My thinking on that subject is that since include fixes do not directly affect the compiler and, instead, facilitate its use on various platforms, it is therefore reasonably safe to back port. Especially if adequate guards (selection tests) are included in the fix to prevent it from taking action on the wrong files. But I also think it is really a "steering committee" decision. For me, I think it is safe enough.
