Hi Helmut, thanks a lot for this patch! I have added it to the development version of the package, which you can find at <https://git.ralfj.de/osspd.git>. I plan to do a new upload soon. Upstream is pretty dead, so there is little point in forwarding the patch there.
Your patch is at <https://git.ralfj.de/osspd.git/commitdiff/1391bb23599f1be06ee33561459ac766bb2f2381>. I build-tested this locally, but of course that's not a cross-build -- I don't have the environment to test those. Please let me know if this looks like it should be working.
