 In the meantime I'm almost ready - qwt made no problems at all for
backporting, so there is no need to disable anything in the bacula build
process.

 I can just speak for myself, and the bpo policy: changes other than
those needed to get the package building on etch won't go in.  This is a
thing that has to get addressed in the unstable/testing package first,
and I really hope you have sent bugreports/patches for that to the
maintainer of bacula in Debian, given your deep insight into the issue.

 So long,
