I'm afraid that if we wish an official release in early January, now is not 
enough time for heroics.

If we push the patch into common cmake module, it would result in rebuild 
almost all packages. For Debian and Ubuntu, this represents 11 supported 
distributions - all i386 and amd64, 3× armel and 1× armhf. I estimate about 
18 days. In case of complications further delay.

With additional time is needed to count due to limited connectivity from 
master server. Here is complication compared to previous 3.5.13.2, because 
for 3.5.13.2 is already used package format quilt (source tarballs are common 
to all Debian / Ubuntu distributions), while the nightly builds still use 
format native => will significantly larger volume to synchronize the mirrors. 
Number of supported RPM distributions probably also increase.

Just to remind: git tag for 3.5.13.2 was from 2. June (a few fixes 8. June) 
and the official release date was 21. July!
