Thanks! Lowering the difference bttween upstream and the package makes 
it less burden to maintain the package and hopefuly adds value to 
everybody tracking upstream.

I have dropped this as not necessary anymore.

True. I am not sure how much changes would be acceptable for 2.5.x. Some 
of the patches left are quite invasive.

I am most interested in merging the rest of the patches[1] to the 3.0 
branch. I think all of them except deb/march-i486.patch can be merged 
upstream.

Thanks again!
