It's pretty much in good shape for Sarge, no problem there. It's just
that the bug list is getting too long, and there are some patches/ideas
out there which would make it easier to use dpatch. It's not a big deal
if those don't make it into Sarge.
(Later, when people start to depened on those features, yet want to
backport their packages, backporting dpatch is trivial; just copy it
from unstable :)
