I think it depends on the size of the patch.  If it's large (like you
say) then backport risk is high.  If there's a smaller patch that just
fixes [Bug #10871], maybe consider backporting that?

[Bug #10871] is happening when running Rails in a threaded webserver,
which is pretty common.  But I don't think I've seen the same style of
code in many cases.

I think we should go with your fixes in 2.3.  If it breaks someone's
code you can have them blame me! :)
