The package worked just fine for years for thousands of people before your
patch, without any reports of data corruption or undefined behavior. Now,
adding the patch renders it unusable by "making it reliably crash", it is
arguably up to YOU as the patch author to check for AND correct any arising
regressions -- not ordering other people around to correct your mess.
