The patch that Thomas requested (commit 841c2be09fe) does not apply cleanly, so I'll take care of sending the backport.

Note that the patch I added inline in my initial mail here was already
adapted to apply cleanly, at least on stable-5.4.y

May not have made that clear enough, so mentioning it here - ignore me this
message if that was read and thought of.

No, I just didn't notice at all that you had taken care of backporting the patch. My brain processed it as the quote of the broken patch you were replying to... I wear glasses after all.
