Alternatively, could you provide guidance as to which commits should be cherry-picked in 3.5 for downstream distros? I’m asking because in Guix, the easiest way for us to deploy the fixes on the ‘master’ branch would be by “grafting” a new Nettle variant ABI-compatible with 3.5.1, which is the one packages currently depend on. Thanks in advance, Ludo’.
