Unfortunately, patch applied against 5.17.4 gave the following test errors.

Perhaps I applied it incorrectly - will check.

It's a bad patch. I'm not sure why I thought it passed with bleadperl (and I knew it didn't look right), but for whatever reason, it's a bad patch.	[reply]

I'm pretty sure the patch was applied correctly to 5.17.4. I went back to stock 5.17.4 and all tests pass. With the patch the tests above fail.	[reply]
