This is debatable :-) I tend to agree, when you backport to X.Y.7 - which will
be the last in the branch. But otherwise, this regression shows why it is *a
good thing* to backport: currently I still remember that patch, and it could
help me fixing it; while if it wouldn't be backported, it only got filed 6+
months later, and recalling the details would be much harder (although for this
case, I have no idea how to fix it - we should be correct first, *then* fast;
and I am not an expert in perf bugs).
