Hi dann,

It looks like there's quite a bit of refactoring going on in the
patchset you backported. Would it be feasible to write a smaller fix
just for the problem being fixed instead, or is this no practical?

>From SRU policy:

"""We never assume that any change, no matter how obvious, is completely
free of regression risk.

In line with this, the requirements for stable updates are not necessarily the 
same as those in the development release. When preparing future releases, one 
of our goals is to construct the most elegant and maintainable system possible, 
and this often involves fundamental improvements to the system's architecture, 
rearranging packages to avoid bundled copies of other software so that we only 
have to maintain it in one place, and so on. However, once we have completed a 
release, the priority is normally to minimise risk caused by changes not 
explicitly required to fix qualifying bugs, and this tends to be 
well-correlated with minimising the size of those changes. As such, the same 
bug may need to be fixed in different ways in stable and development releases.
