 Replying to [comment:25 pento]:
 > It won't be backported at all. If we backport it to the 4.8 branch, then
 4.8.1 will be a huge minor release, with a significantly increased failure
 rate.

 > Unfortunately, that does mean that most patches from now on will need to
 be rewritten to go further back than 4.8. After 4.9 is released, that will
 only be security patches.

 Since the update zips include files with any changes, we can just run this
 specifically on the files that will be modified by a security backport.
 That way the backport is much more likely to apply cleanly.
