So far the SRM accepted fixes for FTBFS(-like) bugs in jessie (or the
non-free appendix to jessie) without questioning.
If we consider some packages not worth fixing RC bugs in stable, perhaps
they shouldn't have been part of stable (or stable/non-free) in the
first place?
Yes, it's a trivial fix and probably noone will run into the problem in
real world setups, but where should the line be drawn?
