Please slow down!

What so far was in git in the stretch and buster branches was
incomplete and did FTBFS for multiple reasons. (Just pushed a bunch of
fixes. It at least builds now on both releases.)

And in Stretch the patch didn't even apply properly and needed manual
massaging. So at least for Stretch (and Jessie) this needs additional
testing.
