Fedora 37 and 38 updates are now pending (cc Kamil):
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-65365355b3
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2023-4beb422aac

The Fedora patches should also apply to the debian bookworm package,
so I've opened bugs accordingly at:

https://bugs.debian.org/1035530
https://bugs.debian.org/1035531

Schlomo, the second one is the one you're particularly interested in.

Marking this bug as completed upstream.

cheers,
Pádraig
