That's OK---that is what "no rush" means. We can throw the one bug it fixes together with the "bugs it leaves" into the same category, i.e. happens only in narrow cases. We now know that you won't be actively working on the topic right now, perhaps others can pick up where you left off and perhaps you can help reviewing such a follow-up work ;-) Thanks.
