I guess the inetd se_v4mapped logical inversion fix and the “ping -w”
support, both from upstream 1.8, would be important to have. But then
at that point the 1.6 Debian release would be the same as the one in
unstable except for the indentation changes, the header cleanups, the
unconditionalization of free() calls and the argp switch, which I
pointed out on my initial freeze exception request.

I've hesitated to repeat the work for the 1.6 release as it had already
been done for 1.8, hoping the RT would approve the one in unstable to
migrate to testing. As I'm assuming this will not be the case, and
you've now done already most of the work (except for those two changes
I'd recommend including), feel free to handle the NMU targetting t-p-u.

Sorry, wanted to handle the mail the other day but it slipped through
the cracks.

thanks,
