This is the bug that my patch fixes.

That's true, but misses the point.

While software has to build, that's just a baseline.

Our users are our priority, and unnecessarily disabling features that 
were present in a previous release is bad.

This might break existing user setups, and the greyed-out menu entry is 
also quite visible.

Unrelated, and not really a problem in practice.
