Huh, how did I miss that. Anyway, I've re-uploaded timemachine 0.3.3-2.1 to
DELAYED/5:
  
  timemachine (0.3.3-2.1) unstable; urgency=medium
  
    * Non-maintainer upload.
    * Fix two segmentation faults in src/gtkmeter.c and gtkmeterscale.c caused
      by passing a truncated pointers using guint instead of a GtkType.
      (Closes: #863420)

The full debdiff is attached.
