Why not update all the way through to v1.8.1467?

Intended to use this as s stepping point for backporting into release-19.03, but the patch already seems to be included there.
So may as well skip it. I'll update the PR.

@fpletz No backport to 19.03 needed, the patch is already included there (43264b1)

FYI the patched VIM is already in staging: #62590 (r-ryantm automatically targets bumps against staging with >100 rebuilds).

If this patch is security relevant we could also cherry-pick the bump from staging to master, right?

Right, picked in a654985; 19.03 has #62713 and e95bbcf. Feel free to do further updates, etc.

Actually, that will probably be better in a separate PR, as the discussion here is focused on that vulnerability.
