The patch switches some options in net/ocaml-conduit and devel/ocaml-logs to 
being suggested where they weren't before, which fixes some build errors in 
www/ocaml-cohttp (that needs those packages to be enabled); I don't think it 
can do any harm.

(But yes, obviously the commit message should specify that).

As an aside, I'm not sure if this dependency occurs all the time in cohttp, or 
if it only triggers if certain options are enabled in www/ocaml-cohttp; in 
general, what is the policy here? Can we specify dependencies on packages 
where certain options should be enabled, or is the idea to just enable 
everything that might potentially be needed by any dependency?
