I've just cherry-picked 0f3be6ca4 for now. We are in deep freeze for
stretch, so I want to avoid more invasive changes (this needs to be
acked by the release team, still)

There will most likely be a backport of newer versions at some point for
stretch, though. So you can get it from there if you need any of the
changes listed above besides 0f3be6ca4.

Regards,
Michael
