I should clarify that maybe I haven't processed the full context for this 
specific issue though.  I do think it's acceptable to time out on an issue 
where a release blocker is claimed to exist if e.g. we can't reproduce the 
problem, or if it's a request for an above-and-beyond compatibility thing (like 
"please restore this private API, its removal breaks our application").  As a 
courtesy we might block a release for a small amount of time while waiting for 
a reproducer or a short-term private-API compatibility shim but the onus there 
is really on the reporter.

From what I can see though, this one is a pretty straightforward case of us 
just introducing a bug into a perfectly valid configuration though, just not 
one we happen to have in our test matrix right now.
