flymake.el lists a maintainer at the head of the package.  Decisions
like that should be left to the maintainer, because it might simplify
his work (for example, if he wants to provide a working version from a
single source).

I don't know whether the mention of the maintainer is correct and up
to date, but you probably should contact him to make sure.
