Here's a bit of an update:

Except for some gnulib-releated test cases that don't work properly, I
have been able to build packages of 1.10.x.

Upstream generates some files in debian/ through autoconf/automake, this
has been a bit of a mess to work around.

I will try to find some time tonight to straighten out what I have got
so far and push that to the repository.

Any help is welcome, of course.

Cheers,
-Hilko
