True, the bug should remain open while there's an affected version around. I'm not entirely sure why that doesn't seem to be the case here. Unfortunately, I'm currently really swamped and don't think I'll have the time to bissect the commit that solved this issue and apply it to the stable version. I'm not sure such a patch would even be accepted as a stable update, but I *am* pretty sure that the whole new version will only be in stable when it gets released, ~2 years from now (just guessing). However, if the sid package could be installed without pulling in other dependencies from sid (I haven't checked), this means it should be pretty easy to make a backport, as soon as the sid version enters testing. Let me know if that would be enough for your case.
