Build issues aside, I think the code in the PR actually needs at least a 
cursory review from someone else than the original author. Others, like myself, 
have passed by and tested the fix or left other comments, but I'm not sure 
anyone sat down and reviewed it all in one sitting.

Sadly no. I suspect that someone who knows their way around a distribution 
would have that knowledge. I could be wrong, but I suspect it's simple.

If it is simple and it hasn't been done in two years, I'd guess it's more a 
lack of will or willingness to just check in the binaries.
