unblock request for mixmaster-3.0.0-6



Last week I uploaded a new version of the mixmaster package to unstable
to close bug #690206.

Since then Osamu Aoki has suggested to me in an email that I should ask
for an unblock request for this upload.

The bug was not RC but it probably should have been since the problem
caused a SegFault on architectures where "char" defaults to "unsigned"
(for example armel). It is basically a one line change, see debdiff below.

Please consider unblocking mixmaster-3.0.0-6 so that it can transition
to testing and be a part of the new release.

regards,

Colin

Ever stop to think, and forget to start again?
