Hi -- can you provide a justification for why this is rc4 material,
please? This wasn't on the list of "things that maybe or must go
into rc4", and the commit messages and pull request cover letter
don't suggest that there's anything particularly urgent here
that couldn't wait for 4.0.

thanks

I looked through the patchset again, looked back at the history
of it on the mailing list, and got some second opinions on IRC
from Marc-André Lureau and Philippe Mathieu-Daudé. We don't think
this is 3.1 material at this point in the release process. So
I'm not going to apply it -- please resubmit as a pullreq for
4.0 once the tree reopens for development.

thanks
