If you know about the bug fixes, why didn't you tell us (dpkg team) about them 
instead of simply submitting a bug and leaving us the investigation work?

Can you submit us those fixes?

So there's no reason to ask them to switch to something else, they just need
to wait until dpkg is fixed and/or standardize the output so that it
always return -1, 0 and 1 instead of the full range.
