After a lot of fiddling, it works here. Remarks:

- It is not at all easy to run git (Perl scripts) in-place. At least for 
  Python, you can set a variable in config.mak and be done with it.
- private_Error.pm is not used. I had to rename it for Error.pm to be
  picked up.
- It even passes t7001 now. _After_ I spent two hours rewriting it in C.
