Great news! Can you point me to a commit I could patch .101 with that
addresses this? Or should I wait for 102? (approximate timeframe?)

Well.. For you this is surely no surprise, as I've been mentioning it
privately for a very long time. I do not feel I can do a good job at
maintaining it, as I'm not only not really familiar with the code
(except on how to build it), but I cannot commit to patch the bugs
that appear... And that disqualifies me as the proper maintainer. And
I have been too busy with other stuff.

So, I'll very happily take the michelada, as long as we meet in
person, which is always fun! (Oh, and please note: I don't think
anybody expects Wheezy to be done in less than a year, so... I'm still
here for some time :) )
