If you are not able to spend the time to assist (if there is someone
to hear) the bug-squashing, and you cannot wait because you need your
production servers running, and there is no quick option here, then it
seems you have no option but to leave Debian.
To me it seems a little sad that you get "all these years on debian"
but are not able to contribute toward fixing of this bug - but sounds
like your circumstances do not allow this, which is unfortunate for
Debian.
Ubuntu is not too far removed (yet) from Debian, so should basically
satisfy you I imagine.
Good luck
