attached is a patch to build a python3-xdg package; I have no interest in pyxdg itself, just took it as an example for a package using debhelper v7.
[…]
Required build dependencies can be found in experimental. Please consider uploading the package to experimental, and/or later to sid. The release team will consider freeze exceptions for python3-* packages. Seehttp://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2010/09/msg00021.html
AFAIUI freeze exceptions could be granted for python3-* packages that are already supported upstream. This is not the case here.
Moreover the patch provided by you is not sufficient. It breaks at least IniFile and its subclasses, which do some explicit encoding/decoding. Possibly more things are broken, but since there is no test suite, it's hard to tell for sure.
