Judging from the rate of the discussion this is progressing, I was imagining that this series would be ready by 1.7.13 at the earliest, possibly back-merged to 1.7.12.X maintenance series, and 1.7.11.X maintenance series is no longer relevant by then.

But I certainly do not mind seeing the series based on earlier maintenance releases, e.g. maint-1.7.9. There however are tons of other git-svn.perl and perl/ updates since then, so basing the series on the current maint branch to abandon 1.7.10.X and earlier but still leaving the door open to downmerge to 1.7.11.X may be a good trade-off.
