Well, only a "major" bugfix would warrant changing 3.6 now, since the
3.6 release is now done. Any bug which has been around for more than a
year or so can not really be considered a major bug, so no, we won't be
slipping that fix in now...
However, we should certainly consider the fix for 3.7alpha. Have you
already submitted a [FIX]?
