Upstream here.  After some effort, and help from Moritz Muehlenhoff and
Kai Hendry, the fix for the security issue in question was backported
to MaraDNS 1.2.12.04 a while ago.   There seems to be some Debian
policy somewhere that states that, once cristened stable, a given
version of a software package will only be updated if the updates are
security-critical.

The relevant bug is Debian bug #425753.  And, yes, as per that bug, I 
would prefer that Debian would update to 1.2.12.06 (or, better yet, 
1.2.12.07), but Debian policy is Debian policy.
