I've been thinking of removing this package, mostly because it's mostly a hack and the main developer kinda abandoned it a long time ago and then tried to pick it up and never did.

I'm not actually using it. The issue came up during review of another package, where it turned up as a dependency and didn't build :)

As it's not going to be fixed upstream and currently unusable anyway, I think removing the package would be the right thing to do.
