Please make sure the pullup is then justifiable on security fixes only, as it seems like your build failure was spurious. (I don't mean to criticize the update at all - that's great to see.) We rarely pull up big version jumps like this; please skim the upstream diff to look for things that could cause it to fail on systems you haven't tested on. It did built on 9/i386, 9/earmv7hf-el. On macOS 10.13/x86_64, the old version failed and the new one built. That's only 2 of about 10 operating systems; would be nice if someone can try it on illumos and GNU/Linux. Waiting a week and checking bulk builds seems like a good way to do that.
