As the first step, I've compiled stock Evolution 2.27.3 (with
evolution-data-server updated to 2.27.3 also).  I've attached my
patches here. Both of them are tested with vanilla 2.27.3 tarballs
from upstream. There are still some small warnings and I'm working on
cleaning them up but I'd like to post them here early to make sure I'm
heading on the right direction.  Thanks for comments.

Is there a good common place to put the debs (amd64 only now, along
with source packages) I've compiled so that other folks could try
them?

I'm working with Evo's maintainers.  I'll post their opinions later.
