1.9.x release notes, SVN-4722

While replying on users@ [1] I noticed that the 1.9.x Release Notes
make no mention of SVN-4722, which affects 1.9.7, and is
fixed in 1.9.9+. This is the bug where a delta length being an exact
multiple of 16k causes an undeserved "filesystem is corrupt" error
during 'svn commit'.

Should this be added to the Known Issues section of the 1.9.x Release
Notes?

Something like this:

[[[

Commit can fail with an undeserved "Filesystem is corrupt" error

See issue 4722, "checksum fail during commit when delta is 16K".

Under a very specific set of circumstances, a commit may fail with an
undeserved "Filesystem is corrupt" error. This bug affects the 1.9.7
release only. A fix for this problem has been included in the 1.9.9
release.

(The line mentioning issue 4722 would have a link to
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SVN-4722?issueNumber=4722.)
