Yes, nowadays that will work.  I will make that change.
I do not want to oppose this change, but I just want to remind people that
long mesages are still undesirable, for example because minibuffer-only
frames don't automatically grow.

You can also turn off resize-mini-windows, and max-mini-window-height
may also kick in ...

So should the call to message in backup-buffer be wrapped in

(let ((resize-mini-windows 'grow-only)
      (max-mini-window-height 1.0))
   ...)
