Thank you for requesting this backport. As this is a bug with a targeted fix, I suggest following the Stable Release Update (SRU) process instead. I'll comment on bug #1245578 when I've uploaded the packages and the SRU team will comment once they've been accepted with testing instructions. Backports are really for new features, not bugs. In addition, if we SRU the package, many more people will benefit from the fix as SRUs are opt-out and backports are opt-in.
