You will have to be reassure that your patch will work and is risk free. If not, get ready for a bill and possibly a congressional hearing.

Good community is great, but you need to shift responsibility whenever possible. Not that there aren't any kernel hackers work in the public service sector, but they have other important things to do than fixing someone else' product if there's a choice.
