We can always back-out the koffice upgrade, apply the patch to the
old version, slide the tag and immediately upgrade koffice again
to the version it now is. It only causes some repo bloat and some
additional work. Note that the intermediate state can be broken
(ie you don't back-out dependent changes to other ports), so the
time frame in which this is done should be kept small...

Just a thought,
