Well, that means it probably doesn't get fixed till 8.5.  I'm annoyed
at that, but such is life.  The problem's been there since those modules
were created, so we can stand it for another release cycle.

Alternatively, we can postpone 8.4 till Oleg and Teodor have some spare
cycles to look at the patch, but who knows when that will be.
