Ditto.  Bug fixes are not at all like refactoring --- in particular, we'd
usually not consider refactoring as fit material for back-patching.

"Refactoring" seems rather a narrow definition of what might show up
in such a category, btw.  Maybe "Code Beautification" would be a
suitable title?  I'm bikeshedding though.
