Except that one of these one-line changes is stated to enable a new optimization path in the shared library which was accidentally not enabled before. Since almost everything in Ubuntu uses the shared library and not the static library, this code is basically untested in Ubuntu up until now, and this is a core library with many reverse-dependencies!

The code was originally introduced in impish, and the related bug LP: #1932010 doesn't show anything in the way of a test plan.

I am holding this SRU until the change a) has landed in the devel series, b) there is a more comprehensive test plan to check for regressions (including on non-z15 hardware) than a small test program.
