Say bug 123 is one that needs to be fixed for Emacs 24.5.
Send a message to control that says:
block 19758 by 123
That's basically it. Closing 123 when it is fixed is still the right thing.
If you made a mistake, s/block/unblock to undo it.
You can see the blocking bugs at http://debbugs.gnu.org/19758 .
