Like me ...

I'll be rolling out 11.1 later this
month, but if 11.2 were to happen in March I'd be SOL before I could
even think about upgrading.

I'm maintaining FreeBSDs installation in few independent companies (about 30 servers or so in total) and I'm in risk of the same.

I has been forced to create workaround to mitigate the consequences.

I'm have local copy of source repository with some own patches[1] already.

Thus I can just back-port 11.2 SA (if there will be some) into our 11.1 repository to support 11.1 for two next upgrade windows (e.g. to end of 2018 if 11.2 will be released on March).

1) There are few bug reported, including patches, ignored by FreeBSD's committers for long time. But most of our local patches are related to enhancements we are missing, support for unsupported devices or so.
