[PATCH] Enable git-send-email-script on Debian.

From

You can define WITH_SEND_EMAIL to include the send-email command as part of the installation. Since Debian, unlike RPM/Fedora, has the two necessary Perl modules available as part of the mainline distribution, there is no reason for us to shy away from shipping send-email.

 *** How do you like this one, Ryan?  Yes I know that we should
 *** not be using the same "0.99.5-" with different package
 *** version to ship changes in the upsteram file (Makefile)
 *** like this, but that aside...
