What would be the justification for that? The bar is pretty high on
putting a patch onto a release branch.
I don't see any evidence that this is a regression, and a bug that
affects debugging is never *that* serious compared to (for example)
silent wrong-code generation. In this case, we're dealing with
anonymous structs, which aren't very common. This just seems like a
run-of-the-mill bug to me.
Thank you,
