Charles-François Natali added the comment:

Well, I don't mean to be a pain, but I still think this patch
shouldn't have been applied: it makes fork() not async-safe, which
can trigger hard to debug, random bugs (#19227 might or might not be
a direct consequence).

at the very least, I still it shouldn't have been backported.
