In the end it's your call.
Arguments in favour: Small patch, very unlikely to break anything else.
Fixes mysterious behaviour.
The next upstream release is likely some time away.
Arguments against: Few users affected (new functionality)
Easy work-around.
Update will cost users some time/effort.
I maintain the Debian package of dnsmasq, and I'm not making a special
release, but I will fold the patch in if I need to make a release for
any other reason.
Cheers,
Simon.
