I am not the main maintainer of this package but having experience with
it,  Would you mind just moving it into Recommends so we would not need
backport-specific patches:  we are providing this package across wide
range of Debian/Ubuntu releases (so libxp6 would be present) and
some people might still use elderly Matlabs.  So with it in Recommends
we would please Debian gods and make users of older Matlabs happy.
