+PERMANENT PATCHES
 =================
-Getopt::Mixed is abandoned and marked deprecated by its author, and many
-distributions would like nothing better than to get rid of it. Using this
-patch, you can make t-prot use Getopt::Long (which comes bundled with
-standard perl).
 
-If you know how to deal with the serious performance impacts Getopt::Long
-brings along, please drop me an email. Thanks.
+These patches are updated as need be, as several distributions (that
+is, their t-prot package maintainers) use them to adapt t-prot to the
+distribution's environment. They will _not_ get dropped just because
+nobody bugs me. :)
 
+Users: Please note that these patches will most likely be applied by the
+t-prot package maintainer(s) of your distribution (if the distribution
+makes use of said Slang, mutt and gnupg versions).

+t-prot-*-gol.diff (2nd version)
+===============================
+This patch has been incorporated in t-prot since version 2.95, when
+Getopt::Mixed would have broken existing configurations with the new
+behaviour of the -c command line switch. The performance issues are
+still not solved, though, so if you have an idea how to improve the
+performance of Getopt::Long, please drop a note.
