I can understand your rationale. I've had situations like that,
at work. Unfortunately for me, I was always on the other side
of the fence, getting hurt so that the pressure could remain
on those whom we expected the fix from. It's a bit unfortunate,
but if you believe it is necessary, then so be it.

Not at all. The rationale is as you said: Although the fix will
hopefully eventually find itself in glibc, some users will still
be using older systems where the fix is missing. If we can help
those people (again, without hurting other users - or your chances
to get the glibc patch in), then let's do it.
