That's a supposed fix for a year old commit, not current RC, and the commit msg does not explain what is the bug being fixed here. Looks like it is doing improvement, not a fix. Can you provide here more explanation of the actual bug being fixed to justify this going to current RC fixes? > Best regards, Krzysztof
