Version 3.00 seems to include the needed functionality too and is
included in perl 5.14 in experimental (in perl-modules package).

I wonder if it is worth the hassle to introduce a newer
libterm-ansicolor-perl package and drop it a couple of months later[0],
when 5.14 enters unstable.
[0] a pure speculation on my side
3.01 (in perl 5.15.2) seems to additionally contain some fixes, that
seem like a good thing to have[1].

Perl maintainers, what would you recommend?
