Because r243845 was only committed today, and I do not see a need to postpone the merge of the fix for the (rare) bug. Less formal, I do not see much use in the single commit spanning both sys and non-sys. We almost never should have such interlock, otherwise ABI issues would cause troubles for people updating the system. And spanning commits are somewhat more cumbersome to both merge, revert and for non-developer to pick.
