Part of the patch is already in our code. I've ported the rest and done some additional refactoring.

An NMU (upload not from the D-I SVN repo) is never really a solution in the case of D-I as it tends to increase rather than reduce the work for maintainers. In general NMUs should not be needed where packages are maintained by a generally active team. It also seems not indicated in this case as this is the first time a patch has been suggested for the issue. Providing (preferably tested) patches against current SVN helps maintainers a lot more and is very much appreciated. Pinging maintainers on bug reports is also always appreciated.
