If the fixed cdbs enters jessie, not rebuilding those now might risk
regressions later during jessie's lifetime, for instance with security
updates AFAICS?

FWIW, the only arch:any packages build-depending on both cdbs and
libmodule-build-perl would be

 libdevel-callchecker-perl
 libdevel-callparser-perl
 liblucy-perl
 libmarpa-r2-perl

As Module::Build is also in perl-modules (but is being phased out),
it's possible that there are other affected packages. I'd be
surprised if there were many more, though.

Hope this helps,
