Btw, the cause of backward incompatibility was introduced in the first leet version of CSSU:
http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_SSU/...g#PR_1.3.3.7-1

The whole patch for bug 6009 is one line change:
- {GDK_KP_Enter, _vte_keymap_GDK_KP_Enter},
+ {GDK_KP_Enter, _vte_keymap_GDK_Return},

In keymap.c file of vte, not a new upstream version, just remapping that causes, very rarely, issues. Not sure if there isn't another workaround, but remapping and pushing it to a release (of a non-removable os update) after 20 days of testing definitely wouldn't catch all possible problems with repos full of programs (Jan 2011).
Bugfixes like this should cause now every maintainer to push two versions (or three with stable version out now) of their progs? All the hundreds of maintainers should now come back and recompile? If this would update libvte I would probably consider it an option (4 vs 9, sure why not), but as a quick fix that introduces incompatibility, sorry but no
