After uploading patched libgd2 to jessie and stretch, I also decided to
go ahead with the NMU to unstable.

I just uploaded libgd2 2.2.5-5.2 to the DELAYED-1 queue. Once it's been
accepted into unstable, I'll file a unblock request to get it into Buster.

I also pushed all three updates to the packaging Git repo at
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/libgd2

Cheers
