Possibly. Just need to be careful we don't end up making a bigger mess
in stable. I has some concerns about the ordering of these patches, but
I guess that was between this patch and the next patch that starts to
reject the illegal aspect ratios in the infoframe code. So just
backporting this one alone (or both patches) should be fine.
