Excellent job on this proposal; it had everything I needed.

The update itself seems fine; my only reservation is that the original bug
doesn't seem serious enough to justify the inherent risk factors of an
update. It seems that it would affect only a very small number of users (on
particular hardware and doing stereo audio capture?).
