cool, that is the usual procedure for fixes to have them included
in stable, so that the release team can review also the bug reports.

just add the patch without changing abi and do a full build,
will do an abicheck at the end. if it throws error it changes abi.
as it will probably just add new symbols those can be waved,
but if the changes are deeper it is a candidate for the abi
breakting branch.
