Please don't get me wrong. I just wanted to point out that we
don't/can't backport patches because Oracle is rather secretive in this
regard. Normally the OpenJDK maintainer uploads a new release to
experimental and we backport and test it then on Wheezy. So please go
ahead with the update.

PS.: I'm subscribed to debian-lts.
