I think reverting it from stable won't cause any new problems to show
up (although the original problem will return, obviously). Go ahead.
At the same time, it would be nice to know that some people are really
carrying out tests to find the reason for the new problem. Otherwise
we end up with this commit reverted and nobody trying to figure out how
to fix the original bug correctly.
