Ok. That sounds as we seem to have consensus now about what should
happen for wheezy? (At least from all people who have responded
recently)

I'd really like to see an answer from the maintainer on this issue -
however, I don't think we should wait forever for this (and frankly
speaking, IMHO we're waiting long enough already). 

So, I think we could start voting on this now-ish.
