It's also relevant for bin-NMU, which can be necessary whenever there is a security release for X core. That is precisely why this was requested.

It's only a question of how I word the changelog entry about migrating to XSF ways for shlibs, versus updating them manually in debian/control. -- Martin-Éric Racine http://q-funk.iki.fi
