Bug 363127 will keep it out of testing anyway since it's filed against
1.1.1-1. (The bug's probably also in 1.0.3, but since I couldn't trigger it
with 1.1.1...)

The .diff.gz, .dsc etc. for 1.1.1-1.2 are at
  <URL:http://zap.tartarus.org/~ds/debian/>

I've not uploaded the source tarball or the .debs since that'd take too long,
and the .diff.gz is a bit bulky because I've had to re-run autogen.sh... hmm,
I've forgotten to add an "NMU" changelog item... oh well.
