Comment (by boonebgorges):

 Replying to [comment:8 jdgrimes]:
 > I wonder if this fix should be backported to prior versions? I'm not
 sure how that decision is made, but I thought I'd mention it.

 We backport to the current stable branch for regressions or security
 fixes, and to earlier branches for security fixes only. This bug doesn't
 fall into either category.
