Comment (by leonardo.schenkel@…):
The reason I originally suggested incorporating this patch was because
it's a regression introduced in 2.2 (neither older nor newer versions of
tmux have the bug), the fix is trivial, and if applied it removed a
warning message when tmux is run in macOS 10.12. The warning was really
from libevent, and that port has been fixed after I opened this ticket, so
at least one of the justifications for integrating this patch has
disappeared.
Honestly if I were the maintainer I would still integrate this specific
patch just to avoid the hard-to-diagnose glitches that you may encounter
when events happen to be missed, but I have to concede that this just due
to my own preference — I happen to prefer to run stable versions with a
few backported patches here and there than running pre-release versions —
and the bug was not considered important enough by upstream to justify a
new patch release. I understand that you as the maintainer may be afraid
of setting a precedent and wants to avoid having to make a value judgment
for every future patch that is not yet incorporated into an official
release. If you prefer not to add the patch, I certainly get your point
and I won't object.
