Looking at other things we had staged for 2.13 but didn't upload,
there are a bunch of hurd-i386 fixes that Samuel Thibault may or
may not care about (and given the lax handling of Hurd as a non-
release arch, might be fine to let in?), and these two changes
from me:
* debian/testsuite-checking/compare.sh: Disable failing the build on test
regressions to ease the pain of ongoing stable/security maintenance.
* debian/debhelper.in/libc.preinst: Remove ld.so's aux-cache on upgrades.
The former is just to make life easier for the security team as
time goes on, and they could certainly do it themselves in their
first security upload.
The latter fixes an upgrade issue in some corner-cases when the
aux-cache was populated and subsequently caused breakage when it
wasn't regenerated.
I would like to see that last fix in wheezy, I'm not sure I have
an opinion about any of the others, but I also don't have any
negative opinions about including them.
