The name of the library was changed, but there is an option to build a
transitional variant of the library.

Commit acb59d99dbb8779ecf41cdbba45d2ce8ba88f5ed does that and uses it
for borg.

Borg fails to create new backups ("archives") with python-msgpack later
than 0.4.6:

I'll create a python-msgpack-0.4.6 package as a quick fix as soon as I
get a bug number from debbugs.
