I've pushed Daniel's patch for smoking as
smoke-me/davem/EUMM_Locale.
(with a more detailed commit message) This seems about the least invasive
change at this late stage.
I've bumped ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Locale's version from 7.04 7.04_01.
Is that the right thing to do? Are there any other files that need
touching to indicate this customisation? I've rather lost touch with the
state of play on this sort of thing. I guess Porting/Maintainers.pl
CUSTOMIZED field?? And t/porting/customized.dat???
