Sorry for the long delay replying; it looks like no one on the team saw
this bug.  Are you still interested in packaging page-break-lines and
maintaining it in on the Emacsen Team, or would you like to treat it as
an RFP?  Were you to want to package it, please man DH-MAKE-ELPA(1) :-)

Regards,
Nicholas
