Unfortunately, their fix makes the software non-standard. You need to be able to roll fixes into the official release.
????? What the heck does this mean? I would bet that most larger installations of Linux or FreeBSD or any other open source OS would be considered non-standard. Heck, I bet YOUR installation of FreeBSD could be considered non-standard. Your statement make absolutely no sense.
If the fix that you decry is a reasonable fix, who says it can't be rolled back into an "official" release. This is open source after all.
