1) I tested it under -stable before -current.
2) I needed it working.
3) It was a bugfix and needed.
4) It defaults to off in all systems.
5) It was reviewed.
6) I have extreme doubts that anyone could have been using it reliably
   before my fix.
7) It's been broken for many months, I finally spent all night tracking
   it down and the Maintainer (peter) didn't seem interested in chasing
   down the problem when I told him about it months ago.
