For the record, the timebomb for 5.34 will go off on 2017-04-01, ie, shortly
after stretch's expected release date.

Why?  The fix is a trivial technical matter (Daniel's one-line patch in the
very first mail) and no one questions what to do for stable.

It's the political issue in unstable what needs deliberation.  And it looks
like removal is more likely to happen than forking, so the problem might
be never fixed in unstable.

The timebomb was introduced in 5.21, oldstable has 5.15, o-o-stable 5.11, so
neither is affected.
