The Debian maintainer reached out to me through the debian bug 856569. He will be moving from xmlsecurity to xmlsec1 after stretch is released.
He has also updated the package to have a libssl-dev as an alternate dependency to libssl-1.0-dev (ie. Build-Depends on 'libssl-1.0-dev|libssl-dev') [1].
We can update our package now following that commit (but replacing xmlsecurity/xerces with xmlsec1) or wait until the merge fails again after his next release. I am copying this message over the last merge bug report (LP: #1666430) so we have some track of this issue in case we decide to wait for the next merge.
