Bug reported upstream to Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/879488
The Parabola patch apparently only hides the problem but doesn't solve it: The non-free code is still distributed as source, and I fail to locate any license granted to Parabola (and us, in extension) to _apply that patch to (otherwise) non-free code.
