no problem. enjoy your hollyday. you're already doing much for this project,
while my contribution is quite a niche one.

indeed i'm developing against old poppler 0.20.5, as it's installed on my
debian system.
that's because my fear the compiled libraries will not be integrated in my
running system otherwise.
makefile.in files are indeed in the patch, as generated by the debian package
building utility. but i have naturally done no change to these files, and they
may be safely removed from the patch. i'll do it if you wish.

as said.
thanks and enjoy your hollyday,
