Hi,

The security team is OK with another DSA if it's a critical breakage.
I talked with the co-maintainer and we decided that it's uncommon
enough that we'll go through -pu unless someone raises a bug, and only
then consider an additional DSA.

We'd like the latest release in -pu regardless, so it should be
independent of this request.

Thanks!
