3.6 is still a pre-release. IIRC, I worked to package it, in
experimental (I can't remember if that was uploaded, though)

Upstream #7481 probably qualifies for an update in stable. My plan
was, however, to wait for the release of 3.5.7 and then see if I can
convince RM that it's a good option to have it in stable, instead of
cherrypicking fixes one by one. Upstream policy is strict enough for
me to be confident they won't introduce regressions...but the RM
advice may vary.
