Of course. I just sent it here that those three can take a look and

Let us hope they are listening.

I will need it anyway for Debian if it is not included now ;-)
And other dist builder will also profit from the patch.

Cleanups are much appreciated ;-)

FIne with me, but I think they are there from current sources, not from
my changes, so I didn't touch these things.
