Well, thats true. I see, that i missed that point.
But there are other bugs fixed in 3.0.2-4 (due to beeing fixed in
3.0.2-3) which make it perfectly sensefull to let it into etch.
E.g. there are problems with the init script (#403616) which do cause
that smstools cannot be stopped under some conditions leading to an
undefined state. Also it does cause that if some users want to
remove/purge smstools from his etch system he can't do this under some
circumstances, because of the init script failing (exiting with rc 1).

Also it would be a shame to miss all the localisations in the stable
release that has been added since 3.0.2-2.
