Hi,

I was waiting for the DSA with the followup on this.  I think this issue
is moot now, because 1.6.0-4+deb9u1 actually contains the fix for
CVE-2018-0486 as well, partly because the CVE-2018-0489 fix (which was
the reason for DSA-4126-1) was easier to apply on that.  So the original
basis of this request for a stable update is no more.

In practice the above means that the diff between current stable-
security (1.6.0-4+deb9u1) and current unstable (1.6.4-1) just got
smaller: it's only the version numbers and the Visual C compilation fix.
But I don't think these alone warrant a stable update, however elegant
that would be.

If you agree, I think we can close this issue without further action.
