I didn't know when I wrote the message.
The discussion of Debian scheduling is at
https://bugs.debian.org/827061

The maintainer wants to go "fast" but the release team is skeptical of
the 405 broken packages.
So, absolutely not measured in days. My guess is small number of months
(1-2), especially if significant progress is made on the key packages at
the ongoing debcamp and debconf.

I'll note that this issue may be particularly challenging for
moonshot-gss-eap because we're embedding an old  version of
wpa_supplicant.
Upgrading would be a great idea but would be complicated because of our
channel binding changes.
Getting those into shape to upstream would significantly reduce ongoing
upgrade complexity.
