RFC: libcrypt-openssl-dsa-perl unblock



Dear release team,

I am preparing an upload of libcrypt-openssl-dsa-perl which shall fix 
a security-related bug that is also present in testing. The changelog 
so far is like:

  [ gregor herrmann ]
  * Add debian/README.source to document quilt usage, as required by
    Debian Policy since 3.8.0.
  * debian/control: Changed: Switched Vcs-Browser field to ViewSVN
    (source stanza).

  [ Damyan Ivanov ]
  * add security_croak-in-do_verify-too.patch making do_verify() croak 
    on error the same way verify() already does. Document that 
    verify() and do_verify() croak on errors.
    Closes: #511519. Thanks to Kurt Roeckx

I was wondering if it would be OK to include the non-critical changes 
above? And if it would, would also fixing the following lintian notes 
also be acceptable for a freeze exception?

 * out-of-date-standards-version 3.7.3 (current is 3.8.0)
 * quilt-patch-missing-description Makefile.PL-no-ssl-in-LIBS.patch
 * manpage-has-errors-from-pod2man usr/share/man/man3/Crypt::OpenSSL::DSA::Signature.3pm.gz:184
 * extended-description-is-probably-too-short


Thanks in advance.
