Correct, libinline-c-perl is in NEW; #754564.
I guess the ftp-masters were more busy with the point release in the
last days.

In general I think that this is a typical example of a lose-lose
situation:
- Either you upload early, then the package has a problem as long as
  the dependency is still in NEW (like now);
- or you upload late, then the package FTBFS as soon as
  (libinline-c-perl is accepted and) the new libinline-perl is
  uploaded.

I agreed that waiting for libinline-c-perl makes sense, and then
closing this bug.

(Uploading now with a reversed order, and then uploading again in a
few days with another reversal seems like a waste of time to me.)
 
Cheers,
gregor
