I've tested a source package generated by uscan a fair bit. There are a heap of new symbols in the new version of the library, but they seem to have been added in an ABI-safe manner. I did not encounter any improvements in the pulse handling with the modified package (although I also didn't discover any regressions). I'd like a testcase to see a bug fixed by this change to have a strong opinion about it, but I'd rather not see it as planned-immediate-SRU, as ia32-libs is *painful* for users to update post-install.
