Code size is not the only measure of significance. 

Without any specialty knowledge of the domain, I would consider this security 
fix probably significant.

However, the AL2.0 license states:
> Unless You explicitly state otherwise, any Contribution intentionally

Given the project was AL2.0 licensed at the time of the contribution, 
submitting a PR to the repository should constitute a "Contribution 
intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work" and should require no 
additional terms.

    except the 2 main contributors we can't really qualify other contributions
    as really significant in terms of code size :)
