Sure, will do. I am hoping that upstream will provide a patch for
CVE-2009-4112 in a reasonable time from now. Upstream has really stepped
up since the preparation of 1.x started and they were getting closer to
actually releasing it. If/once that happens, I'll make sure I'll
backport both that patch and the one for this issue, but then it is
worth the effort in my opinion.
