+  * Tried to fix CVE-2013-2298 and CVE-2013-2018.

I'm not hugely keen on "tried to fix". :-( Are they fixed or not?

+    with ld.gold.

Hmmm, gold isn't the default linker in wheezy afair? I guess this isn't
crazy based on the Build-Depends change.

+Subject: [PATCH] - client: don't show cache size in startup messages.

May well be taken from upstream, but appears to have nothing to do with
the content of the patch.

+workaround-objcxx.patch

What's the intent of this patch? It doesn't appear to be mentioned in
the changelog and only appears to touch code that's never going to be
used on Debian to begin with.

+wrapper.patch

This also isn't mentioned in the changelog.

Adam
