The patch in [1] is enough (I just tried in a stable chroot).

 [1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=688043

There should be no reason to rebuilt freehep-graphicsio-svg, because the
binary package is already ok (the problem is triggered when
_rebuiliding_ the binary package, but the one currently in stable is ok;
I don't know why the first compilation was ok, but it is good that it
was). I don't know whether some other package have to be rebuilt.

Probably the Stable Release Managers should be contacted in order to
understand whether they are interested in this upload. I can do it if
maven-debian-helper's maintainers are ok.

Thanks, Gio.
