You probably noticed that I proposed the whole patch series for trunk 
and 2.9, and I still think this would be a good idea ;-)

I don't see a risk in applying test changes in 2.9 (even if this means 
pulling in AATest, which you could call a bigger change). Worst thing 
that can happen is a test failure, and that's something we'll notice 
easily ;-)

The series has some non-test patches that are bigger than AATest and are 
needed to fix real bugs - and backporting only the "core bugfix" without 
the cleanup, added tests etc. is much more work and IMHO also more risky 
than applying all patches.

Besides that: most of the changed code is covered by (freshly added) 
tests, to I'm quite sure the risk of breaking something is quite low 
(even if v1 of "logparser.py: change mask only for path events" just 
showed that this risk still exists ;-)


TL;DR: IMHO we should apply all utils/** patches from the last weeks to 
2.9, which basically means the only difference between trunk and 2.9 
would be the CapabilityRule class.
