Lennert is surely around... but I think it might be good to get a few
motivated maintainers for the fedora package. (Folks who could triage
bugs, pull commits from upstream, etc). Especially since Lennart is
busy with systemd.
Any folks willing to step up? Lennart: any folks you trust to do this
or would be willing to help get up to speed?

I'd suppose if it's just one commit and is urgent, it would be a job
for a provenpackager, not a take over request.
This doesn't feel appropriate to me, since it's obviously a patch which
should go upstream if it goes anywhere. A provenpackager can't commit it
to upstream PA.
(note that Lennart doesn't check his
redhat.com email much, he prefers
the
poettering.net address).
