Perhaps you could avoid putting such fixes into published merge
branches. Have it in an off-topic branch and tell people with affected
systems to locally merge such a branch themselves if it is strictly
necessary to keep their development rolling. (And if such an off-topic
branch turns out to be unexpectedly long-lived, ping the choke point.)
Just so that there is minimal surprise about which modifications your
trees carry.
