I think it'd be sufficient to just remove the remove_one() hunk from commit b0dc3c8bc1. Otherwise, commit b0dc3c8bc1 depends on these commits to apply cleanly: 4ec331c3ea aa0cd28d05 But I'll have to reassess the applicability of commit b0dc3c8bc1 to earlier releases. I'll send a backport to stable@ if it is needed. Thanks, Mike
