Moved to the correct place: information about patch versioning should
be put in comment section[1], not in commit message.
[1] Which means between "---" separator and diffstat.

I'm sorry to be this picky, but don't you think that caller should not need
to know "intimate" details on how die_error works. In particular please
notice that you must have known that die_error wraps its output in <div>...
which is not even mentioned in comments.
The second argument of die_error() subroutine is meant to be alternative
description of error condition: short and one line. For situations such
like this one, where we want to describe error in more details, it would
be better, I think, to change signature of die_error() to take (optionally)
three arguments, and use 'die_error(500, undef, $err_msg);', with $err_msg
starting from '<h1>...</h1>'.

Other that this minor issue it looks good.
