Comment (by fhgwright):
Umm, upstream published versions of that patch for all 3.x branches.
There was also no rush to apply that patch at all, since upstream deemed
it too low-severity to justify new releases. Since the effect is similar
to a small memory leak, seeing an actual problem from it requires a server
uptime which is humongous on 32-bit builds and astronomical on 64-bit
builds.
Although not patching 3.1.5 at all would have been fine in this case,
patching it without a revbump is inconsistent, so I just submitted PR
23478 to fix that.
Fixing the bug would certainly be desirable, though it's a nontrivial
amount of work.
