Thanks you, but as I detect these issues in an automatic way without
much manual labor, I don't need the credits :). And I uploaded to
DELAYED exactly to give others the opportunity to fix it before me, so
uploading to DELAYED in my opinion *always* has that ACK implied.

I have pasted the diff below, but for such a no change NMU, I'd just
ignore it if I were you. It's not interesting especially if you beat the
upload anyways.

I can (and will try) to cancel my upload, but it's rather harmless if I
fail because it will indeed be rejected if there is already an newer
version in the suite and you'll only get a reject e-mail about it (which
can still be annoying, so I'll try and cancel).
