As you mention, one comment in the bug report says it was fixed upstream,
so it's a matter of finding that change, building a patch for firehol,
and going through the SRU[1] process for it.

It sounds like you're willing to help with the testing portion of the SRU
process, so you just need to find someone willing to hunt down the patch
and develop a debdiff for it.  Perhaps asking nicely on the #ubuntu-motu[2]
IRC channel on freenode?

Take care,

-Kees
