I rebuilt all reverse build dependencies on libcglib-java against
CGLIB 3.1 and I found 3 packages with FTBFS errors related to this
change:

libhibernate3-java
sisu-guice
spock

I have a package cglib3 ready but I don't know if I just should update
cglib or introduce this new package. What's for sure, I don't want to
have packages broken in the archive for months while we wait for upstream
to port their software or for ourselves to patch those packages.

I would prefer to introduce cglib3 and migrate to it since that way
should be less intrusive.

Comments?
