I did some archaeology. The patch mentioned in this bug is no longer
needed, it was included verbatim into upstream. There are some other
patches, and it seems that I've never forwarded them to upstream (bad
tincho).^W^W^W^W^W^W^W^W^W^W^W^W^W
Scratch that, I spent a couple of hours trying to understand all this,
and forgot that I had actually forwarded all the patches upstream, but
they got lost on the way. I didn't reply a mail in the bug and then
forgot the issue. The bug was finally closed a few months ago:
https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=28315
So, 01 and 05 were ack'ed and applied upstream. 03 seemed to be acked,
but I think he only applied the Build.PL changes that are not relevant
anymore. So, 02, 03, and 04 still apply with minor changes, and I
assume they are still relevant then.
Not the problem is that 0.83 is in experimental, something by
cowbuilder does not like too much...
