ok -- god blessing from release team for uploading patched 0.8.6

got stuck now though since with sid's version of pandas (never migrated
to jessie since some builds were failing... yeah... busy busy) mne build
was failing:

======================================================================
ERROR: Test stc Pandas exporter
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/nose/case.py", line 197, in runTest
    self.test(*self.arg)

    if com.is_bool_dtype(result):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pandas/core/common.py", line 2465, in is_bool_dtype
    tipo = _get_dtype_type(arr_or_dtype)

    return arr_or_dtype.dtype.type
AttributeError: 'NotImplementedType' object has no attribute 'dtype'

which smells like pandas issue.  I am building their fresh release 0.15.2 -- if
that one addresses it -- we are set, will upload that one and then patched mne,
and will request unblock... if not fixed -- I would need to troubleshoot/get it
fixed, and then upload pandas.  summary: I want to upload mne only when I
know there is no FTBFS in sid or jessie (so far that one is cool)
