Here's the debdiff for the release candidate.

two new upstream updates:

 - Issue #5705: os.setuid() would not accept values > 2**31-1 but pwd.getpwnam()
   returned them on 64bit platforms.

Reverted:
 - Issue 1326077: fix the formatting of SyntaxErrors by the traceback module.

The latter one is a regression and should be fixed before the beta.

Risks:
 - changing the version requires a rebuild of libapache2-mod-python.

Benefits:
 - two more fixes, one is a regression
 - having no special characters in the version number avoids things reported in 
bug #355257,
   although these upstreams shouldn't make these assumptions.

Uploading the package to my PPA for a test build.
