Reading the bug report for #838326, I don't quite understand why the severity is so high. But hey, as the maintainer you probably know better and it's not me but the SRMs you need to persuade. The rules for stable updates have changed: the devref still claims one needs "a truly critical functionality problem" while the SRMs have since relaxed that to "severity:important, but really it depends". As this bug claims to be "important", we may give it a try. However, you are required to ask the SRMs first. The proper procedure is described in developers-reference 5.5.1. All you're missing is an ok from the release team: please file a bug on "release.debian.org", we need them to allow the upload. Please attach a debdiff between 3.5.2-8 and 3.5.2-8+deb8u1 to that bug. But here we have an issue: there's already a bug report on release.debian.org asking for a stable update, even with the same version (3.5.2-8+deb8u1): #840378. It's a NMU from Salvatore Bonaccorso fixing a different problem. That bug is 6 days old, hasn't been responded to yet. You guys need to coordinate...

Filter out and throw away the fruits (can dump them into a cake, etc), let the drink age at least 3-6 months.
