Comment (by teor):

 Replying to [comment:7 catalyst]:
 > I think we only need to backport if we expect to need to update the rust
 dependencies in the older releases.

 While the older releases are still supported, we might update their
 dependencies:
 * to resolve rust bugs, or
 * to pick up security fixes, or
 * if the exact versions of crates in the old cargo config stop being
 available.

 It's also worth being consistent between releases.

 Since this patch is pretty simple, I think we should backport.
