Of course *now* the OP knows it is a bug, probably he
didn't know that when he posted, unless he (very
unlikely) was unware of the bug report function.

Yes, this is better - general guidelines (or
"instructions" downright) what to do - FAQ material (if
it isn't there already).

Question: "Non-released" software, I suppose that
includes the emacs24 (or 24.3+1-4+b1) or

GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.12.2)
 of 2014-06-06 on barber, modified by Debian

because I have the same problem, as said. Do you have
to get it from the stable Debian repositories for it to
be "released"?
