I'm in agreement with Linus, but it also highlights problems with code-bases this complex. We depend on code being readable to spot malicious activity. Generating a SHA1 collision to jam in a very subtle bug is highly improbable, and might even be unfeasible if the diff is small enough.
There's certainly a concern if your code is more opaque, as is the case in this bug. If you're taking in raw asm.js code, for example, from various sources...
