The fix looks good to me. However, since we are in rampdown phase two
[1] and about to enter release candidate phase [2] I believe you need to
justify getting it into 11 as per the Late-Enhancement Request Process
[3]. So, it needs to be P1 or p2 and have a suitable justification
provided in the JIRA.
