Right, the bug has been closed by re-uploading the old library to 
unstable and moving the one introducing the ABI change to 
experimental. The current packages in unstable are based on the ones 
from experimental. We introduced a soname bump though before the next 
upload to unstable, so everything should be fine - and AFAIK the bug 
has no more occured ever since then.

I believe it should be safe to close the bug eiher with the version 
number of the first upload with the soname change (2:1.0.0+debian-1) 
or of the first upload to unstable of this branch (2:1.0.0+debian-4).
