Shouldn't this be a freeze-exception, as it concerns security?

Maybe it's still not there because is too recent or due to some packaging

Anyway, I think yes, even more being a security fix. Many packages have
been unblocked and got updated in wheezy regardless the current freeze
status, so asking for this would be desirable.

Greetings,


An unblock request has been filed.  [1]

[1]http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=685600

And, good... And better yet, it should be unlocked by now :-)

Greetings,


10.0.6-2 is now in testing.

Probably yes.  You could contact the package maintainers and ask them to
file an unblock request.
