speedy-cgi-perl (2.22-1) needs recompile for 3.1r1



Hello.

I discovered a quite nasty bug with speedy-cgi-perl on amd64 (and only 
amd64) in the current stable release.

 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=326201>

This package was compiled during the short period where perl
supplied the DynaLoader version 1.05, which was reverted in a later 
version of the perl package.

This unfortunate event led to a version mismatch between speedy-cgi-perl 
and perl, causing any CGI, which uses speedy-cgi to fail on amd64 (like 
smokeping for example).

The solution is a simple recompile against the final perl package in the 
stable release fixes the problem, so a binary-nmu for the next 
point-release of Sarge should be enough.

(I am mailing this to debian-amd64 as a heads-up, because the maintainer 
of said package didn't react in nearly 14 days.)

Grüße,
Sven.
