Thanks for the patch, Steve. I applied it to the SVN repository. I
hope to find time for running some basic tests later and upload the
package this evening. Unfortunately I'm away for the next week. Do you
intend to push this change into wheezy? If not, then delaying the
upload for seven more days should not be a problem, right?

Kind regards,
 jonas
