It is possible to build phonon-backend-vlc against the new
libvlccore7. Now phonon-backend-vlc have broken depends on i386 and
amd64. On others architectures new version is not avaitable now, see
#727831.
phonon-backend-vlc isn't the only package affected; CCing the
maintainers - what's the plan here?

I must admit to not being overjoyed at such changes being made in an
urgency=high upload, with changelog entries such as
* New major upstream release. (Closes: #436339, #632965, #642187,
#698023, #593735, #724734, #665732, #700752, #704941, #708953,
#712935, #398167, #646200, #679654, #654955, LP: #982953, #301193,
#986785, #1038303, #1109026, #530797, #667584, #938621, #671031,
#1080847, #1157384, #1173943)
Unless every single one of those bugs is requesting an upload of the
new version, that changelog stanza is broken imho; it should refer to
the actual changes made.
