Not from me.

I support a module upstream (out of necessity because I needed it fixed)
and they seem to have a "fixes forward" culture. I was discouraged from
backporting the fix in a patch because it would create a different behavior
on Fedora from other distros and was instead encouraged to work around the
problem (use a fixed local copy). So we should probably stay on the latest
minor/patch release for the major version of the package, in this case 3.

Thanks,
Richard
