  Here are mine, I probably wouldn't even give 2 cts for them. Nothing
stops you from packaging a SVN version of GLee at the moment, with an
appropriate name, such as 5.5~svn+r288734. Just make sure it can be
replaced by the "real" 5.5 version later should upstream choose to
release it. In any case, you should point the problem to upstream of
GLee.

  One last trick question: is the 5.5 version of GLee embedded in Löve
just a SVN snapshot, or did it get modified ?

  Cheers,
