I've prepared a package of a 4.3.2 + that patch snapshot. You can find
it at [1] - for instructions how to build the package see one of my
follow-up e-mails to this bug report ([2]). Feedback would be very
appreciated.

I've reopened the bug for now. After some positive feedback, I will
include Florian's patch in the next upload. An updated backports.org
package will be available as soon as that new version migrates to
testing.

TIA,
Sebastian
