Anything but cherry-picking a fix would most likely violate SRU policy (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates). This is the only way a fix can go into precise-updates.

If you want a full backport, then this would need to go into precise-backports. Users would need to enable backports to make use of it, since it isn't the default. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBackports for details of this process.

Right now, I think the easiest way for this bug to make progress is for someone to figure out what to cherry-pick, test it and then go through the SRU procedure at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure
