I would like to get it released in 5.36.0 as a build option. I know people
who would use that build option and are backporting your original patch and
if there are conflicts I would like to get it resolved. More specifically
Booking has been backporting your patch ever since you wrote it, to perls
from before when you wrote it. Thus a long time, (with no issue mind you).
Even though I don't work at Booking any more I would like to get this
sorted out so my friends and colleagues there do not have to deal with it.

I would be happy to write the required code.

cheers,
Yves
