Alternatively, the patch could just be applied to the existing stable package. That might not play nicely with automating the build from git, but it would produce a minimal diff. > Thanks for the info.

Unless 0.3-5 needs until after June 15th to migrate to jessie, that's not an issue. If it does, the package from p-u gets copied in to jessie in the short term.
