Bug#592871: libapache-dbi-perl_1.07-1+lenny1 does not actually apply the patch it contains

Package: libapache-dbi-perl
Version: 1.07-1+lenny1

I was wondering why my /usr/share/perl5/Apache/DBI.pm did not contain 
the "eval {$r = Apache2::RequestUtil->request;};" fix which the 
changelog stated it was released to include, even though it clearly was 
version 1.07-1+lenny1 I had installed.

After downloading the source package and building it my self I conclude 
that the patch is simply not applied during the build process.

ii  quilt                             0.46-6
ii  perl                              5.10.0-19lenny2
ii  dpkg-dev                          1.14.29

But as I said... the offical package doesn't result in a patched 
/usr/share/perl5/Apache/DBI.pm either.
