Evan Leonard commented on DERBY-4256:
-------------------------------------

Any chance this could be merged to 10.5? I'd quite like to make use of this fix, but am not excited about having to wait for 10.6 next year.  From this attached diffs, it looks like it is a small localized fix that could safely be applied to 10.5.
