It should be pretty safe -- the patch looks self-contained to me, and
there are no other significant changes in those files since 9.3.4.
Alvaro might have a different opinion though.

If you're concerned about running a build that doesn't correspond to
anything that's been tested anywhere, then an alternative would be
to grab the REL9_3_STABLE branch tip from our git repository, or
perhaps the state of the tree as it stood at commit c0bd128c8.
This would just be pulling in some other patches that will also be in
9.3.5.
