Ah, I understand.
So the negative effect is that the next connection (after the upgrade) will
fail, with some errors sent to the log, correct? In this case, I think you
could make a case either way; if you have the time and motivation to fix it
for stable, it might be nice for some users, but if you do not, it doesn't
seem too serious.
