Hmmm, so are we releasing a broken version with Squeeze?  I admit I
finally need to backport the packages to Jessie (at least in the
foreseable future).  So having a working version of meson in Squeeze
(=testing) where to backport from would be really convenient.  Is this a
good reason to file a bug severity grave and is there any chance to
backport the "treat warnings as non-fatal" feature to 0.37.1?

OK.

Kind regards
