In fact I already did (https://github.com/asciidoc/asciidoc/pull/106), which is why I’d been holding off on trying to upstream this Git patch. The trouble was, the AsciiDoc developers had not been cutting new releases “because nobody knows how” (https://github.com/asciidoc/asciidoc/issues/103#issuecomment-322077321). However, it looks like AsciiDoc 8.6.10 was recently tagged and Debian got a 8.6.10-1 package yesterday, so I guess that trouble has been quietly resolved.

That should make this Git patch unnecessary. (You’re of course still welcome to take it if you think build reproducibility with old AsciiDoc versions is worthwhile.)
