Note that "only" 15% of that big patch actually affects the code. The
rest concerns documentation, test files, etc. There is only one fix that
I really care for, however, and it amounts to an insertion of one line
in toke.c. This fix is especially needed when developping web
applications with Catalyst, which I am currently doing [see
http://lists.scsys.co.uk/pipermail/catalyst/2008-September/019687.html].

I have revised the patch and removed some additional Debian-specific
hunks. The tarball linked to in my previous post is updated.
