Sure. Following up to Adam's reply in that thread:

I had a look at those two bugs:
#601974 is indeed fixed in unstable, it wasn't closed in changelog
because the fix was applied directly to upstream (and included with
1.99-1 upload). I've closed that bug and put everyone involved on CC.
#610184 might not be fixed in unstable according to this report:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=610184#64 . Given
the situation I wouldn't include it in this proposed update.
Adam, you didn't mention #609804 in your mail. Is that one ok?
