Yes, generally I agree with you.  But properly fixing the code
certainly will take some time and I would like to get the package into
sid before that, so people can start playing with it.

I could file an RC bug myself to prevent it from migrating into
testing and to let people know that it is going to be flaky on 64bit
archs.
