Hi Joseph,

I'm the user who wrote that comment, I'm not using rc-proposed (but rc) and
I cannot confirm the patch will be included (for example it could always be
reverted if a regression in all devices caused by that patch is found)
however it was included in mako landing 484 [1] and AFAIK it wasn't
reverted.

The patch you're asking for is in libhybris
0.1.0+git20151016+6d424c9-0ubuntu18~overlay1
package:

  [ Boleslaw Tokarski ]
  * [properties] An off-by-one error in prop handling


Cheers,
Devid
