Hi Yuriy,

The change you propose seems reasonable to me and should be acceptable
for stable. The debdiff looks ok to me and I consider pulling it into
our jessie branch.
For the upcoming stable point release 8.5 it's unfortunately too late.
New uploads are only accepted until this weekend and I don't have the
time to prepare an upload and get a review by the release team in time.
So this will have to wait for 8.6.

Fwiw, I've usertagged your bug report, so it shows up at [1]

Regards,
Michael
