I've tried to contact Don multiple times over the past month with offers
of whatever help I can give, but I heard nothing back.

I didn't know about the github repo (it's not listed on the hackage
page), so thanks a lot for that info, I'll try to send some merge
requests and file bugs (there is a least one critical bug w.r.t. SSL
usage on Linux and another small-impact bug with cookie jars usage).
