I'll try it (it's in pu, right?). Note that breaking git-fmt-merge-msg 
might be a good way to force somebody to rewrite it in C ;-)

Note that on my iBook (where I reported the Devel::PPPort problem), I _do_ 
have perl modules compiled from source, using SWIG. So, there _should_ be 
no problem to get it to run (although I have problems with my eyes ever 
since I looked into the code generated by SWIG).

Ciao,
