I did some preparation in debian-experimental (after some fighting
with git :) and closed bunch of bugs while at it.

I am running the build in unstable i386 && amd64 pbuilder right now,
so we'll see if my work compiles.

P.S.: I had to disable sacredchangelog for a while, since I had many
changesets and just the idea of rebasing 8 patches was causing madness
at my side :).
