Thanks, this needs to go into maint.  Actually, I'm attaching it right
to the breaking commit and merging that to maint, with a short-lived
bugfix branch.  When later browsing the history graph, this allows to
easily find nodes from which two or more children emerge: these are
either regressions or base points for new feature development.  The two
situations are usually easily distinguished.
