As I see it, adding and maintaining a line to 2000+ debian/rules files 
is a bit of a burden. Not an unbearable one, but we embraced the tiny

I wonder if debhelper would be the right place to add this. This would 
solve the problem this patch solves, and maybe also simplify the patch 
in the perl package package [1]
