Well, kinda, because the patch doesn't work without it.  The
problematic case is where none of those 3 flags are set and also
!superuser, so that we decide we need the default grant implemented a
few lines further down.  That grant now has an explicit reference to
the new roleid, and if we haven't CommandCounterIncrement'ed, the
pg_shdepend code will error out because it doesn't see the catalog
entry for roleid.
