We always patch Mochiweb to fit our needs that are divergent from the upstream project. It isn't safe to assume an independent cut of Mochiweb will just work. e.g. we're changing the default handling of encoding integers in mochijson2 among other things. I'd strongly suggest to not build a package that is seemingly like our release but has subtle differences or bugs.
