Yes, I think this makes for a good rule of thumb: if fixes for the affected
packages are readily available, there’s little harm in uploading all
packages at once, and it means less work for ftp-master and less bloat in
the archive :).

If, however, fixes are more involved/not easily coordinated, we should go
the route of a new package.
