That's not really a criterion in and of itself for fixing things in
stable though.

This change appears not to have been applied to unstable yet afaict; is
that correct?
Looking through the diff, "drop" appears to mean:
+ if (system("dpkg --compare-versions \"".$ARGV[1]."\" le \"0.0.12-3\"") == 0) {
+ system("test -f /etc/cron.daily/slbackup && rm /etc/cron.daily/slbackup");
+ }
At a minimum that should be checking that the file in question hasn't
been modified since the version shipped by the package, otherwise it's
an invitation for a new RC bug.
