Thanks for filing this. Due to the Redis licensing change, we are
stuck at version 7.2 (in experimental). Because of this and due to the
refactoring surrounding the way Redis tracks various flags pertaining
to the client, it is not straightforward to backport this patch, even
to the version in experimental.
I will ask upstream whether they plan to fix earlier versions
themselves, otherwise I will spend more time trying to work out how to
backport this.
