We generally do not make decisions based on the changelogs alone.
Please send us a debdiff including the upstream changes[1] and we will
have a look.
  If the diff is relatively large, please double check it actually
reaches the list when you send it.  We have had a number of cases, where
the mail never reached us because lists.d.o /silently/ dropped the mail.
 However, keep in mind that if the diff is this huge, we usually cannot
review it and will default to a "no".
  In this case, we may still consider accepting a subset of the changes
(cherry-picked fixes) for various bugs.

autoconf's configure via filterdiff if such appear in the diff.  Though
please mention if you do apply such a filter.
