Indeed it's not in 0.9.22

It will be trivial to back port, I think it's only one git commit. The
Makefile.am may need a little tweaking but it should be very easy.

So even if it's not in the version you need to use, I'd backport it then
improve it as you need and we can still ultimately take those
improvement patches with little trouble :)

We're hoping to get git master out pretty soon, within the next month or
so, but depends on various stabilising efforts and peoples time :)

Arun already replied with the link that I forgot to put in the first
mail... :p
