I don't see why this particular fix would need to be backported. It is specifically for a change in Drupals nodeapi between D6 and D7.

I just tried a clean 6.x-2.x in a vagrant dev vm and it seems to work fine.

Install both hosting_tasks_extra and hosting_tasks_extra, drush cc drush and edit a site node to add a password. Done!

If you still have a problem after updating to the latest code and flushing the drush cache we need to search for another cause.

I am using 6.x-2.1 and it works. Or..
It sued to work before we upgraded apache to 2.4, now it's not working anymore, so as far as I can see the issue is in the apache generated v-host?

The 6.x-2.x branch will go EOL along with Drupal this week. So I'm closing
this issue. If it remains a confirmed issue in 7.x-3.x, feel free to re-open,
or better yet, create a new issue referencing this one.
