The developers would prefer a patch which would fix the problem as it would indicate that you thoroughly understand the issue. However, the first question any developer will ask ask is "Does this run on -current?". If you submitted a patch developed solely on -release, this still leaves the above question very open.

From the developers' standpoint, -release or -stable is secondary. Most developers never run anything other than -current.
