[arch-general] What is the policy regarding the urgency of fixes ?

For example, the following commit fixes a bug

https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/cuda&id=09ae51b3d87b7cc8cce2bfd1026e711e29368a8f

But that change would require a 400+ MB to be downloaded when doing a
pacman -Syu. The next version of CUDA is probably around the corner. I feel
a fix then would have been easier.

I am not complaining, I can just do --ignore for now. I am just curios to
know if this kind of stuff is thought about.
