There is now an actual upstream release with the msgpack-c changes.

I've pinged these bugs and got responses that the Perl folks would be ok
with those two packages being removed from testing (not unstable since
packaging was done in response to an RFP) to help the transition and
possibly bring visibility to the needed maintenance.

Given that there's been some activity upstream around these packages,
I'm a little more confident about performing NMUs than I had been.

Thoughts on how to proceed?
