Yes, I noticed this bug just this week mixed in with the other debian-x
traffic but thanks for drawing my attention to it, it's easy to miss
stuff in the flood.

There's a new upstream release which needs packaging (and I guess omits
the asm/page.h include since I didn't notice any failures). I've been
working on it and it's pretty much done, just need to finalise it. I was
hoping to find an evening this week but it looks like next is more
likely at this point.
