No offense, but there are a variety of packaging mechanisms which will
also add a patch (.rpm, .deb, etc.) for various local modifications. I
also would agree with Gilles that your patch seems like a rather large
feature to be adding when we really want to "finish" 3.1.x releases.

OK, then let's talk about getting your patch into the 3.2.0b4
snapshots. If we get it in shortly, we'll probably have a beta release or
two to catch any portability problems.
