patch to remove version string warning

With modern perl versions (I'm using 5.20), the included Storable module ha=
s a
version number which is non-numeric. This results in every program written =
with
the p5-forks module to emit this warning:

Argument "2.49_01" isn't numeric in numeric ge (>=3D) at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.20/forks.pm line 1570.

The module itself has not been updated in a long time, but there is a propo=
sed
patch for this on the CPAN bug database at
https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=3D102730 which is what I impleme=
nt
with this local patch in the port.

The Debian project has done similar:
