Nope, I'm monitoring the debian release process, and I think we still have 2
or 3 weeks before extra (section which po4a belongs to) becomes frozen. The
last madness is to consider non-POSIX construct in build scripts as release
critical. That's the best way to not meet the deadlines.  But that's the
kind of madness debian loves. 

Moreover, I really don't have the time to go for a release now and another
one in two weeks when/if encoding works.

Take your time, dude. Don't do like me, leave you a chance to do it right at
the first attempt ;)
