Anyone who is caught in this position can use these commands (as root):

cat <<EOF >/etc/apt/preferences.d/proposed-updates
Package: *
Pin: release a=focal-proposed
Pin-Priority: 400
Package: src:glibc
Pin: release a=focal-proposed version 2.31-0ubuntu9.4
Pin-Priority: 500
EOF

cat <<EOF >/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-focal-proposed.list
# Enable Ubuntu proposed archive
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal-proposed restricted main multiverse 
universe
EOF

And then updating in the usual way to test the 9.4 update without the
risk of getting other packages from the proposed pocket onto their
system. And I'd definitely appreciate hearing if works! (You should see
a warning that rebooting soon after upgrading from 9.3 to 9.4 is
recommended)
