That is a Serious bug, and is a FTBFS, so AIUI, it is RC. So it can be filex in a NMU. However, According the the Developer's reference, only DD's can NMU. If that is true, then sponsored NMU are not allowed. However, tradition holds against this, as there have be numerous cases of sponsored NMU's. Assuming the DevRef is in error, you should prepepare an NMU, following the rules [0], publish the packages someplace public, and send a message to this list with a title beginning "[RFS] NMU".
