I don't recall the exact situation, nor have time to dig thoroughly the thread.
but last time, you mentioned you would take a look at the patch:
http://www.mail-archive.com/nut-upsdev@lists.alioth.debian.org/msg01337.html

we have a growing trend of patches that needs users testing...
and that end up forgotten because the users never get back to us!
