I'm sorry, I must have been half-asleep, distracted, or confused,
because I mixed up backintime (rsync only?) with timeshift (btrfs or
rsync).

It looks like the maintainer took care of
https://bugs.debian.org/1106754 ... For the record, a bug that is
serious enough to merit an unblock during the hard-freeze is serious
enough to merit a stable-update post-release.

Kind regards,
Nicholas
