Looks you are missinformed with respect to more than one issue.

1) there is no need to modify the code as it already correctly honors linux 
        device handling and permissions

2) if you believe that there is a problem, contact me in order to avoid to 
        introduce a bug. If your really report a problem, this would of course
        be immediately fixed in the original.

One of the major problem of the Debian fork is that the people who initiated it 
miss basic skills in Linux knowledge and thus introduced many bugs in device 
handling.
