Given the efforts it took me to get any responses to repeated pings in
discussing those bugs, it would be justified for me to say NO.  (One
of the two bugs still doesn't have a consensus about what to install,
AFAIU.)  But I'm willing to give people one more chance.  I think it'd
also be good to see the patches themselves, since we've seen them so
long ago.
