Yeah, that's the way to do it.  Be as obnoxious as possible and
see if it gets results.

This isn't a voting thing.  You don't get to vote and you don't get to
lobby.  You get a new package when the maintainer (me) feels like
releasing it.

make has a lot of local hacks.  It isn't as simple as just downloading
and rebuilding.
