OK.

We normally don't backport new features into stable versions, as
experience told us that while tempting, over the long term it causes
quite some issues. It may exceptionally happen very early after a
release because something doesn't work as expected or is incomplete,
but we've long past this stage for both 1.8 and 1.9. However if you
are willing to keep your own patch and apply it to your local tree,
and just need some help to review it, I can help here. But I'd still
recommend you to migrate to 2.0 ASAP, this will be less trouble for
you than to maintain your patch set.

Cheers,
Willy
