That is effectively what the code ended up doing and why 4.8 and 4.9
are split out. We only wanted to separate out the specific versions 
with issues as we wanted to allow reuse where we could.

If they were many issues arriving that might be what we'd have to do but so
far I've not seen reports of that many...

As Andrea points out, we did fix this with a global include file which should 
have
handled the issue. Are you using a release which doesn't have that or not using
the include through your own custom distro?
