Anyone who is caught in this position can use these commands (as root):

And then updating in the usual way to test the 9.4 update without the risk of getting other packages from the proposed pocket onto their system. And I'd definitely appreciate hearing if works! (You should see a warning that rebooting soon after upgrading from 9.3 to 9.4 is recommended)
