I've now had chance to review the diff; apologies for the delay. It
turns out that a lot of the changes are JavaDoc or the reformatting of
method headers or calls, although the latter particularly didn't help

Having looked through the list of upstream bugfixes, I'd be happy to

Sorry, but yes, if the feature hasn't been enabled previously and isn't
used by any of the r-deps, I'd prefer that it stay disabled for Squeeze.
