Well, you might probably better declare that you welcome a non maintainer
release of it (having xxx-yyy.1 as version number). This way, you would
have one month from now to upload version xxx-(yyy+1).


Non maintainer releases do not close bugs. However, a non maintainer
release that *just* fixes a bug because a bad building environment
(buggy debstd, in this case) should probably be able to close such bugs.
What do others think about this?
