Shure, please provide a patch.

BTW: I wonder why there are hundrets^Wdozens of buildroot forkes, all
     with more up to date/additional packages and noone ever seams to
     provide patches on their own. 
     Do they think that buildroot is to unmodular that additional stuff
     would make it to bloated for the rest? Or is the addition just a
     hack, they always wanted to clean up, just never found the time to
     do so? Or do they simply not care?
     - Just wondering.
