I think it would be unfair to expect that upstream developers track all the
major distributions.
But it's easy enough to download their source packages and inspect them
for interesting patches every once in a while. I think package
maintainers will respond favorably if their work was acknowledged. Maybe
they tried to submit a bug in the past, but couldn't, for some reason.
