Have you considered modernizing it in Rust or Go? I also hate that most operating systems doesn't have a community maintained package for it.

Actually, the repository contains also Go implementation: https://github.com/xwmx/nb/tree/master/nb.go

Then write a community package for it?

When I say community package those are still usually reserved to trusted maintainers and that process in itself can be rather political.
