Nice.

If Michael Tautschnig as setup-storage maintainer acknowledges the
patch and either you or MT applies it to svn so I can cherry-pick it
from there that's absolutely fine for me and I'd provide it as 3.4.3
release, sure.

If the bug deserves a freeze exception in your opinion an RC
bug in the BTS would be great so we can argue accordingly.
(Let's see whether we have any further issues upcoming, but let's
make sure we're on the safe side and the version targeting squeeze
is in a good shape.)

Thanks.
