 this.  We usually don't backport refactoring stuff.

 You're right, the code should be equivalent, so we don't need to backport
 it.

 I felt a little uncomfortable having different code in a bunch of
 different releases. But I don't think we can avoid that problem, because
 backporting refactoring is higher-risk than letting code diverge.
