Having reviewed the diff between 0.4.1 and 0.5.2, I'm ok with pushing
0.5.2-3 directly into testing.

The versioned shlibs issue doesn't seem to be release-critical in that
case, since there is no version of libidn11 in a stable release that
doesn't contain idn_free.

If you don't want 0.5.2-3 in testing, let me know and we can go the
t-p-u route.
