Richard Hansen added the comment:
My preference is to apply the patch, of course. There is a legitimate concern that it will break existing code, but I think there are more points in favor of applying the patch:
* there exists code that the current behavior is known to break
* it's easier to remove assert(view->suboffsets == NULL) than to
change producers to not provide an all-negative array (though I
admit there may be other more subtle ways the patch would break
existing code)
* I may be the only one who has spoken up about this, but I doubt
I'm the only one who has experienced it
