Daniel, thanks for the response. The issue is that we don't allow changes into the stable release without a test case to prove that the change was needed and successful in producing the intended outcome. We also need to know what parts of the program a change touches so that we can prevent regressions.

However given the seriousness of bug 1009536, I think we should waive that requirement and instead focus on testing the program with a prolonged stay in precise-proposed.

Given that I'm going to accept the upload. This bug will need to be verified, however, so I've marked the test case in the description as the one that users should try after installing the package from proposed.
