I know libdata-messagepack-stream-perl and tmate already have fixes

Also, binNMUs should use "--add-depends 'libmsgpack-c-dev (>= 6)'" to
ensure they rebuild with the new package.
Can you instead provide a transitional package? That will help with the rdeps
and especially with the reverse build-depends. Effectively once libmsgpack-dev
is decrufted, those rdeps will be RC-buggy as they build-depend on a virtual
package.
The other alternative is to file bugs already for those packages asking to
build-dep on libmsgpack-c-dev, in which case we don't need to add the extra-depends.
My concern is that any future upload or binNMU for an unrelated reason will pick
up libmsgpack-dev.
