I uploaded 3.2.3 a month or two ago with a view to getting a newer, less buggy release into the archive to replace it ASAP, in time for release. 3.2.8 was released on Wednesday, too late to get it packaged up, past Debian NEW, and into Trusty before freeze. Such is life. I strongly feel that we should upgrade to this version. It resolves a number of cross-platform issues and Linux bugs, including official support for ARMHF (our 3.2.3 packages supported this via about 50 cherry-picked patches). The impact should be relatively low (one minor ABI change will affect one rdep, requiring a simple recompile) compared to the existing impact of 3.2.3 - and we're still very early in the freeze with plenty of time left for any bugfixes as discovered. Upstream still does not meaningfully support ppc64el (it will compile, but fail to run any software which calls into C libraries, making it useless) so I feel the ubuntu1 revision should be dropped to eliminate any confusion over arch support.
