As Tom already said, this seems like a quite independent issue. Next
time it'd be better to share it in a new thread, not to mix it up with
the old discussion.

Unfortunately, no. We're still discussing what would be the right fix
(it's rather tricky and the patches I shared were way too experimental
for that). But I'm pretty sure whatever we end up doing it's going to be
way too invasive for backpatch. I.e. the older branches will likely have
this issue until EOL.
