Just for the record, I added the new version of the iepngfix.htc to
the s5 package in my own Subversion repository yesterday; I'm almost
ready to release it, and I'll send an RFS to debian-mentors later
today.

Jakub, thanks for catching this; Simon, thanks for hunting down
the LGPL-2.1+ version of iepngfix!

G'luck,
Peter
