The rustc binNMU would also build with the upstream binaries. We'd need to
upload a -2 package with the right build-deps and not using the available 
binaries.

However given the compiler is first built with the stage0 binaries, but then
rebuilt again with that intermediate version, I'm not sure we need to do that
right away and could wait for the next update. I'm happy to do it now though if
you prefer it that way.

Cheers,
Emilio
