Just upgraded to Bullseye and after playing with a few options for 
installing s3ql, I finally went with the following (with my default release 
set to bullseye so it would use those packages preferentially):
- installed python3-trio from testing (currently 0.21.0)
- installed s3ql source from unstable (currently s3ql 3.7.3) 
- built the source package on Bullseye
A number of additional packages had to be installed from bullseye in order 
to build and install it, but it avoids the whack-a-mole problem mentioned 
above. Seems to be working correctly.

FWIW
