I'm having a hard time seeing the difference between our suggestions.
Can you clarify yours?

To give more detail, here is what I was suggesting:

1) Apply a graft to master.
2) Merge master into core-updates.
3) Apply a commit to core-updates that "un-does" the graft and applies
the bug fix without a graft.

Apologies if my original email was unclear.
