I'm not all that familiar with the backports process, but I think
1.8.4 should at least be available in unstable and possibly testing
first.  If you prepare 1.8.4-2 targeted for unstable we can get that
uploaded so long.  Things that should be checked for the this upload:
switching to debhelper 10, Standards-Version 4.0.0 (see policy
checklist [2]) and please install the latest Lintian from Sid
(currently 2.5.51).

Graham
