It is a regression since commit 05ca0350e8caa91a5ec9961c585c98005b6934ea
was merged after 2.6.18.
Considering that the fix is trivial, why shouldn't it be merged before
2.6.19?

Ah, I misinterpreted when that cset went in (I read the commit date
which was back in June, not the merge date, which was september).

Yes, I'll push it on.
