@@ -6,6 +6,12 @@ Deleting the definition is sufficient to make it fall back to a
 byte-at-a-time copy loop, which should consistently give the
 expected behavior.
 
+Note: the particular case that prompted this patch is reported and fixed
+at http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=48864.  However, my faith in upstream's
+ability to detect this type of error is low, and I also see little evidence
+of any real performance gain from optimizing these calls.  So I'm keeping
