Well, that's part of what my ports/50577 was supposed to change.
However, only one of the 3 patches of files/configure.in seem
to have made it in, and even that one was partly incomplete.
Hmm ... Tilman?

Also, Tilman gave me the issue of him not being able to
build with files/patch-bibtex::reverse.c, but I seemed to need
it in order to compile.  However, without the configure patches,
I can't get any farther.  I'll look at it again once we fix the other.

(fyi, I don't actually use this program; I was just wandering around
trying to close random PRs.  In doing so, I "assumed" from the
state of the pybliographer web page that since it mentions
recode was at 3.6, and it's at 3.6.x now, that it would be worth
trying to put some patches in to see if it might now work.
Otherwise, pybliographer was scheduled for demolition.  It
might be worth someone doing a heads-up for the actual
author to ask).
