And with some more testing, even with debian/compat restored the same
failure still happens. Apparently bumping compat to 12 (or even 10)
will cause the same problem to happen.

BTW. If this turns out to be a pdfmod specific problem (and not a
generic .Net packaging problem) feel free to just close this issue.
