We still have quite a mixed fleet of jessie and stretch servers and
aren't in a position to upgrade them all to buster just yet. Meanwhile
this bug makes things a bit awkward day-to-day.

I'm happy to sponsor uploads to the stable suites, certainly. You will
need approval from the stable release managers first then, and I will
avoid wearing that hat for this case in order to avoid a conflict of
interest.

I don't monitor monit (haha) or sponsorship-requests generally, so drop
me a mail when you are ready for it to be uploaded.

For backports more generally, drop me a line and I'll see what I can do.

Thanks,
