Hi Jonas,
thanks for quick reply. 

I actually use the (privately) backported version, but I thought if the
fix will go to stable, version uploaded to backports will complicate
things.

Thanks for clarification, I will push the backport to wheezy-backports.
Note I am not the DD nor DM, and I do not use cdbs much, but I will try
to track changes and update backports as needed.

Cheers, Petr
