OK, thank you, I've applied all the series now. Regarding the backport,
I prefer not to do it. The reason is that some distros will start to ship
with 1.7 soon, and some people might find some articles on the net suggesting
to do something with certain options that don't exist for them. We've faced
this situation a lot in the past during 1.3 and 1.4 and that's really not
nice for distro maintainers who are bugged with wrong reports. Now we
release much more often and limit the backport to fixes.

However I've kept your comment saying that it can be backported because if
someone wants to add your series into his/her tree, it's useful to know that
it can be done without risks.

Thanks!
Willy
