In fact, one of their patches was sent upstream a couple of months ago
and we didn't react to it.
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24132

It's a documentation patch, fine as it is, although i'd prefer to fix
that by moving dumpBackup to the new Maintenance style.


Other patches are not so fine...
        wfSuppressWarnings();
-       session_start();
+       @session_start();
        wfRestoreWarnings();


Sure, it was for FusionForge package, but still what error would
session_start produce that is not trapped? (I can only make an E_NOTICE
or E_WARNING...)
