No patches. But a while ago we (you - I was mostly watching) were playing around with the way SFTP reconstructed a file from packets that didn't necessarily arrive in order. You fixed a major flaw but there was still an issue that IIRC could, in theory, leave a gap in a file. Have you looked at this at all since? If not, I'm sure it can wait for a future release.
No, I dropped the ball there and unfortunately I haven't picked it up since. I think we should try to come up with a way to force short packages to get sent by a server to help us write better code that handles this situation.
But I think we can release anyway as this bug has been present for a while and doesn't seem to hurt that many people - I'm guessing blindly based on nothing but lack of bug reports.
