Actually, after talking with an ftpmaster on IRC, he has made me realize
that removing the package from -backports will not actually serve our
purpose, because users will not upgrade to the wheezy-security version,
as it has a lower version.
The proper fix would be to upload a new backport from stretch or,
failing that, ship the patches from wheezy-security into the backport.
I don't think we can safely update the wheezy-security version to the
backport as there are what seems to me to be API-breaking changes
between -3 and -5... I haven't reviewed the patch, but those changes
seemed problematic:
* [8b23685] Remove obsolete webapps configuration (Closes: #714707, #714258)
* [6abb302] Cleanup password handling
* [e4a9bf7] Fix password handling
* [c14f6cf] Deprecate Nagios1 compatible Nagios configuration
* [abe9bc9] Update web specific packaging for apache 2.4
