Sure, this is not touching libvlccore, just libvlc. It is a backport
of what is in master currently. And this is attempting to fix a
totally broken object in libvlc (and fixing its associated tests at
the same time). It doesn't touch any other object in a intrusive way.
So this is really low risk regarding VLC. And a medium risk regarding
libvlc.

This could deserve an -rc, if libvlc users are testing it.
