Once you "let us know when done", be sure to include bug number that describes the issue well.
And, ideally the nature of the fix.
 
Include some justification why the "risk is work the gain".
That is, there's risk in any rebuild ... both of the build not working for
reasons completely unrelated to your fix, or some really weird, unexpected
side effects.

In other words, at this point, we don't respin for just any one :)

But, naturally, we all have an interest in shipping high quality,
but, you've got to justify why it's worth rocking the whole train.

Could you, for example, make a fix available on your own update site,
to be available at same time we release? Or, would that not work well
for this case? (such as, would damage existing code, before they had the update?)

All that said ... I (we all) do want to help you out, here ...
but, we have to have some limit at some point, so ask that
you justify it along the above lines so we can apply same
criteria to everyone.

Thanks,
