build went just fine on gabrielli -- so I have just uploaded it

;)  well -- backports is pinned at 100 which is less than default 500
for main archive.  So unless someone explicitly requests new version one
way or another it should not even cause FTBFS.  But if someone does have
newer cython installed, it indeed might cause  FTBFS for some packages I
think.  I will run my test for that now.
