The patches look quite good. With the exception of your manual/info page modifications, the official packages should already include the changes you've made. The debian repository for this work is found at [1]. I'll look into the info page changes and try to get something included that works for you. Was there a specific reason for renaming the manual.texinfo file?

I've also pushed a snapshot of the packaging work to [3] if you're interested.
