I understand your unsureness for the point release inclusion.  When you
request it to the release team, you can quote my support based on the
following rationale.

===
* This dvipdmf-x code currently in jessie broke the released note as we
  released.
* Considering extremely complex nature of texlive, isolating problem
  into a small patch is unrealistic effort.
* Current released code fixes the problem and allows to build the
  release note.  The module code nature of texlive should make this safe
  change.

In light of this, please include this into the upcoming point release.
===

Regards,

Osamu
