Please get an ok from the maintainer.
this is true in general, unfortunately Chrisb is inactive since one
year or so,

Hi Adam, Gianfranco,
thanks for looking into this. Apologies for not including the maintainer
in the original mail, it wasn't intentional. Deferring the packet is
probably a wise move to give the maintainer an opportunity to step in (I
consider that unlikely, to be honest), should you consider going ahead
with the review.
Should I re-upload this package with a high deferred number or can this
be done from mentors?
BTW all of the diff, except for ~100 lines is about autotools
autogenerated stuff :)
Yes, the actual diff in the source code is much smaller than the 400
kloc. Unfortunately this release tar ball contains a lot of
autogenerated stuff, in addition to full a archive of the previous
release. I considered removing some files in a patch, but that would
have increased the total change rather than reducing it.
As far as I can see the changes in the source code since the last
package are listed below. The latter two bugs were previously patched in
the Debian package; these patches are now incorporated upstream, hence I
could drop them from the Debian package.
bug #49557: XHTMLDoctype.h fails to include MStreamable.h
