raise severity of usertag drop-versioned-libjack bugs

Hi,
Our JACK packaging has now contains jackd2 (no longer jackd1).
Upstream has promised a frozen library API[1] equal to that of jackd1
0.116.2, and both shlibs file and symbols[2] file reflect that.
The library packages no longer provide packwards compatibility with
libjack0.100.0-dev. The following packages dependend on that and are
now broken is unstable:
audacious-plugins-dev
dssi-dev
libarts1-dev
libecasound2.2-dev
Quite possibly some additional packages build-depend on it too - I
haven't looked that up.
I noticed that libarts1-dev already have a bugreport (#527404) for this
issue, with usertag drop-versioned-libjack and user
pkg-multimedia-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org - so I guess other
packages are similarly tracked. Severity of these bugs need to be
raised from its current "minor" to RC level.
Kan someone fluent in usertags (Felipe?) please take care of this?
Kind regards,
- Jonas
[1] Hopefully the library ABI is frozen too - this is assumed in our
current packaging but not really promised anywhere.
[2] Symbols file needs cleanup to match official public API: whatever
symbols existed in recent snapshots of both jackd1 and jackd2 is
currently marked as part of the stable ABI, symbols only in recent
jackd1 is marked as optional, and newly appearing symbols are
automatically marked as "add-ons" (i.e. requires tight dependency).
