Thinking a bit more, reverting the patch (or maybe commenting out the code
would be better) is maybe the right approach after all, if nobody submits a
better fix. Removing the code that was added that patch shouldn't really break
anything, the only effect should be that there's sometimes unnecessary
resampling, which is better than breaking the timing of applications.
