IMO, the correct way to deal with this is to prepare an upload of clang
3.0-7 (currently in testing is 3.0-6) which includes *ONLY* the fix
necessary for closing this bugreport. I have looked at both versions
(3.0-6 and 3.2~rc3), but I can’t say for sure which change it is.

Afterwards, generate a debdiff between clang_3.0-6.dsc and
clang_3.0-7.dsc and attach it to this bugreport, asking the release
team for approval to upload it to testing-proposed-updates.
