The new coming-soon jack package will fix the issue. However it will
take a while before all jack-dependant packages get rebuild (and as I
said, a rebuild is not really necessary, as the new jack package is
backward compatible).

That would be a Very Good Thing! I think it should not be too
difficult to achieve that, we would probably need to set some
auto-builders that fetch source packages from sid and rebuild them for
etch.
