You must have some reason for believing that.  Please share it with us.

Even better: apply the patches and run some tests.  If you believe
there are new failure modes then surely you can quickly prepare a
testcase which demonstrates them.

Or just suggest a test case - I expect David will be able to test it.

Again: without hard, tangible engineering facts I cannot take comments
such as the above into account.
