+1 to the second thought, except that I don't see any need for binNMUs.

Uploading libcoro-perl 5.230-4 to sid doesn't change anything wrt. squeeze
(squeeze and sid already have different versions) and therefore isn't
really in the release team domain. However, it's the easiest way to
confirm that the fix works and to clean away the unnecessary backend
selection code. I think you should go ahead.

If 5.230-4 builds everywhere, I think this bug (#578458) should be closed
outright. I should really have reassigned it instead of cloning.
