Comment (by knarf):
As far as I am concerned, changes to machine files are among the first candidates that should get a backport. Machines/distributions are prone to change, and I don't see why we shouldn't react to this. Roland: please backport what you see as necessary and safe/tested.
Concerning a new release tag: I would wait with that a little longer. The tags aren't really supposed to be used by anyone for a checkout anyway, and waiting a little to accumulate more changes shouldn't hurt.
