4.4.0, correct and I do accept that. but not in 5.0.5. Derick applied
the patch to 5.1 not to 5.0.5. We did agree to apply it there and not
in bug fix releases (and not in security release). Or can you point me
to the common decision? ;)

The bad solution is to do not communicate about that. Reading the
announce of 5.0.5, the only real problem was xml_rpc... If one has
asked to apply the fix to 5.0.5, I'm pretty sure nobody will agree to
add this fatal error.
