Yes. I was mentioning the next CF because ISTM that nowadays
non-committers are expected to file patches in there, committers
picking up patches both in the current and next CF based on
their evaluation of priorities.
But if you plan to process this one shortly, a CF entry is probably
superfluous.

PFA a new version adding the clause for only 12 and up, since the
previous versions are not concerned, and as you mention, really old
versions would fail otherwise.
