It would be helpful if the original repair stays on a branch, labeled
with the collector ID of the bug, until after the 2.8 merge is complete
(rather than fixing directly on the 3.0 branch).

So, the rhythm would be something like:

  - Create a bugfix branch from the 3.0 release branch.

  - Write tests which fail when exercising the bug on the fix branch.

  - Make the tests pass by repairing the bug on the fix branch.

  - Merge the fix branch to the 3.0 release branch and to the trunk.

This isn't really more work than sitting directly on the release branch,
and it is *less* work than starting from the trunk and trying to
backport the fix to the release.
