Possibly.

I looked at the code for a minute or two, and perhaps I'm being dense
this morning, but I wasn't able to see (from the code and the commit
message and from the diff) precisely what misunderstanding the
original author of the code had, and how this patch fixes it.

I don't want to backport (non-security) things unless they have a very
low chance of regressions.  So perhaps someone could either explain it
to me, or assert convincingly that they are sure it's right :-).

Thanks,
Ian.
