I don't know, but the php7.0 we have is indeed from testing.  Should
roundcube installation script explicitly be depending on /usr/bin/php5
binary if it doesn't support php7.0 yet?  Or is this out of scope for
backports?

It helps yes, passes the error in the subject, but also need php7.0-pspell:

# aptitude install php7.0-xml
...
# update-alternatives --set php /usr/bin/php7.0
update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/php7.0 to provide /usr/bin/php (php)
in manual mode
# aptitude reinstall roundcube-core
...

# aptitude install php7.0-pspell

# aptitude reinstall roundcube-core

This instance of Roundcube is up-to-date.
Have fun!
