A couple of comments:

1. Was the upstream tarball modified in line with README.Sources? I'm just surprised that your tarball is 825025 bytes while upstream one is 753320 bytes; according to README.Sources the dfsg change was the removal of a po file? Perhaps you have not used the -9 option while recompressing?

2. You mention the removal of symbols, is there an ABI/soname change? I don't see r(b)depends so I'm not overly concerned for the distro, just for any third party apps which might be using libslab (assuming there is any).

3. Finally, can you tell us what testing have you done? I'm just concerned by http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=459324 where 0.9.10 was rejected because of the freeze.
