Sorry for the delay.  The thing that was holding me up here was that I
wanted to sort out a proper migration to git first, complete with
stitching in the full upstream history seeing as upstream now provides a
git mirror; but I was having some problems getting reposurgeon to
round-trip the upstream repository correctly.  After some help from ESR,
I've now got this working, and I'm pushing up the repository now.
Details will follow in a separate thread.

Upgrading to 6.5p1 should be a pretty quick job based on this, so I'll
sort that out in the next couple of delays.

Cheers,
