Sorry about that. I thought it was a small change safe enough to be committed without asking to the list but apparently I was wrong. I'm going to revert it right now on 5.3 and 5.4, but just for my personnel knowledge, could you tell me what kind of problem this change can introduce ? Thanks Pierrick
"Stable" branches need to be kept stable, so only high priority issues should be fixed. The problem with any change is that modifying any code can have unintended and unforeseeable consequences. More extreme examples from other projects have involved white space differences throwing off build tools; optimizer bugs/features changing expected program behavior; the sudden exposure of latent memory issues due to structure changes.
