Please open a p-u bug with the proposed fix (as a source debdiff)
attached to discuss that; random mails to debian-release@ are awkward to
track and tend to get lost.

A testcase that fails sometimes is not good.

This is a testcase-only fix that is already in unstable,
that fixes sporadic build failures.

I would suggest to upload 1.1-4+deb8u2 (created on top of 1.1-4+deb8u1) 
with 51-sigpipe-test.diff added to jessie, but Julien (or any other SRM) 
should confirm that.

This seems related to #797386, which I fixed in 1.1-7 by adjusting the
test. See patch 51-sigpipe-test.diff.

I'm certain this is irrelevant from a security perspective, as the
binaries remain the same with or without the patch. However, I'm not
sure how to proceed with this bug, either.

Kind Regards
