Hi Tino,

I don't know the details of Debian's freeze policy, but it seems to me
that you have a very strong argument for getting 1.3.x into Wheezy: With
very high probability, 1.3.x is going to be more stable and more useful
than 1.2.99.1 or a 1.2.99.x with fixes and backported features.

Version numbers mean nothing in and of themselves.  In this case,
upgrading to a more recent version seems to be a much more reasonable
fix than backporting fixes (or even fixing from scratch).

Or even within Debian...
