The patch doesn't appear to be in unstable yet - in fact, stable and unstable have exactly the same version of sphinxsearch. The first step in any such process is to get the bug fixed in unstable, and then open a "p-u" tagged bug against release.debian.org with a debdiff of a minimally changed package built and tested against stable. See https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2016/11/msg00009.html for more information, including "[p]lease don't post a message on the debian-release mailing list and expect it not to get lost".
