You should cc the patch contributor where possible. In this case it is Tim
Deegan (cc'ed) and the patch looks like a straightforward and obviously
correct bug fix to me, as pretty clearly explained in the changeset comment.

Perhaps it has revealed a latent bug elsewhere?

The patch is also in 3.3.1 by the way. Have you seen problems there too?
