Unstable already has a fixed version. Just jessie still hasn't as of now. The backports should also be updated once the new version is in jessie. I'm currently waiting a bit before asking for an unblock to make sure the package is really fit enough to go in and nobody is complaining. As the update has been reviewed quite a bit before this release, it probably is ready to go in as is. I'd rather not split the fix out and do only a partial patch for testing as per upstream's recommendation. Cheers, Kilian
