Someone first has to manually check that these packages use distutils (look for something along the lines of "python setup.py install --install-layout=deb" in debian/rules) and doesn't move around stuff manually in debian/rules or elsewhere; binNMUs should then be safe (although I still think source uploads to get python3.2-dev (>= 3.2.3-7) added to build-depends of each of these packages should be done). I'll get around to looking at the rest of these bugs (eventually), as they should be easy to fix in the above holds true. Andreas, if I understood your analysis of #700782 correctly, the hypothetical situation that an user unpacks any of the affected packages (or an older version prior to being rebuilt against python3.2-dev (>= 3.2.3-7)) before python3.2-dev to trigger this bug still exists, right? In that case, python3.2-dev should probably still add a Conflicts: relationship with all of the affected packages; I wonder if Matthias might have anything to say about this?
