Here's an idea: how about *you* send it upstream on your user's behalf?
You are the maintainer, after all.  That couldn't possibly take any more
work than having this conversation.

I have a hard time understanding this.  You have an opportunity to make
your Debian package *better* than upstream by changing one character,
and you're actively trying to avoid it?  You wouldn't even have to
upload immediately - I can't imagine Marc would have complained if you
had waited a bit for another set of changes that better warranted an
upload.
