Yes, but not in this trivial case :)

I can understand it, but if 4.6.1 is released in a few months time and
4.7.x in a few years, it's probably worth to have such change in 4.6.1.

Yes, unfortunately :(
I think it's time to release 4.6.1 as is (there's no need to make it "perfect",
it's always possible to release 4.6.2 if critical problems happen), because
most distributions patch current 4.6.0 anyway or even use MC_4_6_1_PRE
(in RH/Fedora case).
