I can guess what you've done, and it sounds quite cool, but I'm not
about to do it for fetchmail for a couple of reasons: I'm not the
fetchmail maintainer and have no desire to be, and I'm hoping that in
the near future non-US might at long last be able to merge with
(us-)main. In the meantime, the small diff to the configure.in file
and the tiny diffs to the debian/rules and debian/control files are
sufficient to build a fetchmail-ssl package, so I see that as the
easier route. Not as slick, I know, but fairly effective.
