Just to clarify:

The bug is *both* in that particular Release file and in the usage
that debmirror does of the Release file. As we have said several
times, the bug seems to appear only if debmirror tries to use that
particular Release file, while apt, apt-get, aptitude, synaptic,
apt-mirror, etc. seem to not be bothered.

Perhaps the easiest thing would be to patch *also* debmirror, on top
of correcting the mistake in the generation of that Release file.
