Thanks for caring about fixing bugs in stable. For future reference,
it's much easier for us to track such requests if they're filed in the
BTS as an appropriately user-tagged bug (e.g. via "reportbug
release.debian.org").

+mapserver (6.0.1-4) unstable; urgency=low
6.0.1-3.2+deb7u1 would be a more conventional version, although -4 would
work so long as there was never an upload to Debian using that version
number. wheezy isn't "unstable", however. :)

What's the status of this bug with regard to the version of mapserver in
testing / unstable? The BTS metadata indicates that it affects that
version and is not resolved there.
+ * Migrated to debhelper level 9 and policy bumped to 3.9.3.
The former is definitely inappropriate for a stable update; the latter
could be included but isn't particularly relevant.

Unless I'm missing something, the issue this is fixing doesn't actually
occur with wheezy's toolchain; as such, it's not something we'd look at
changing in stable I'm afraid.

That would be:
++ if(strncmp(request->contenttype, "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", strlen("application/x-www-form-urlencoded")) == 0) {
This will also match "application/x-www-form/urlencoded-badgers", which
I assume wasn't intended. That may or may not be worse than the original
bug though.
