So far as I can see, the only place a bug is mentioned is in nuapplet's
excuses; that says "fixes old bugs", which is fine.

There isn't any form of active blocking in this case. The reason the
packages aren't migrating is that libnuclient has changed soname between
the versions in testing and unstable - migrating nufw on its own would
therefore cause the testing version of nuapplet to become uninstallable,
as libnuclient3 would no longer exist in testing; the packages thus need
to migrate together.
I've added a hint to that effect, so the packages should migrate
tonight.
