I’m +1 on reverting the change, I’d even go so far to say I’d be +1 on doing it as a first response. It’s always possible to revert the revert once the person who committed the patch has time to investigate the failure and recommit the patch with a fix.

I would rather have the revert be the first response. Without a thorough understanding of the bug/feature being addressed it is entirely possible to introduce a new bug or change the semantics of the original patch.
