It has been NMU-ed for #645191 but, honestly, I'm a bit unsure about the patch.
In #645191 there's a quite long explanation about how hard it is to reliably unpack waf, bruteforcing C1/C2 characters etc. But the NMu and http://wiki.debian.org/UnpackWaf basically say “just pick whatever there is between #==> and #<==. FTPmasters apparently didn't really care about that (or maybe they just didn't pay attention). So maybe it works, maybe it doesn't. I have no idea, and as I don't really understand how messing with waf makes ftpmasters happy, I completely refrain myself to do it. So all in all, I think you should contact Koichi Akabe (who NMU'ed midori). Considering the current situation, it's very likely that I'll just remove myself from the Uploaders.
