You can find the original description by Matthias Klose in
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2003/debian-devel-200304/msg01895.html
In one thread following that message, see
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2003/debian-devel-200304/msg02163.html,
it was concluded that a solution to the problem exists, but no one worked
out the details or created a patch.
