Yes, I know.  Their failure to address this bug is responsible for vlc being
badly broken for a long time now.  I would think this an appropriate reason
to apply a downstream patch.

Yes, I know.  I saw it.

I appreciate what you're saying, but have you examined my patchset?  It's
not quite the same as any other that I've seen, and I have yet to receive
any criticism of it at all.  If it will cause breakage, I'd like to know
specifically how, so I can either fix it or abandon the effort.  I'd hate to
think it was being prematurely dismissed.
