This change is in the 3.2-fixes branch, so as @Thaddy wrote, it will be in the upcoming release: 3.2.4

That is surprising. Adding a library is a new feature, not a bug fix. The FPC project mixes the concepts of a bug fix dot-release and a major release.
It is OK to have many years between major releases but bug fix releases should come often and should contain only pure bug fixes.
This mess-up may explain why the dot-release is taking so long (over 3 years).
Not good...

I just wanted to voice my agreement with the above.

I don't understand the reason to hold bug fixes in a non-official release.

I'd support something like having a bug fix release every six months or so.  At least that would show the project is alive and ever progressing.
