In 21.4, I'd strongly consider that (assuming the Japanese bug was
considered important enough to fix in the first place).  But in 21.5,
we'd really like to get it right, even at the cost of some delay/
instability.
Anyway, Ben is expected to be back in production shortly, so enjoy
your period of relative peace while you can.  He's got at least two
projects pending, so I expect there will be crashes, broken builds and
all the usual fun and mayhem until about Christmas.  :-)
