For those who want to check their xz packages before the next namcap released 
I have added the relevant patches to namcap 2.4:

https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre/packages/namcap-2.4-1.1-i686.pkg.tar.xz
https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre/packages/namcap-2.4-1.1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

And the PKGBUILD including the patches can be found at

Greetings,

Pierre
