i think I will leave it for the Release Team to decide. But just
consider the scenario when the severity of this bug for a package 'X'
is reduced and then another FTBFS bug is raised on that same package.
The FTBFS bug will be fixed and it will have an early migration as the
test is not (yet) marked "superficial".
