I added in the monkey patch. However I am not getting the results I am expecting when I do 
[% FOREACH entry IN feed.entries %]
    [% USE Dumper %]
    [% Dumper.dump(entry.content) %]
[% END %]

Which shows us 
$VAR1 = bless( { 'body' => 'This is a test post', 'base' => undef, 'ty
+pe' => 'text/html' }, 'XML::Feed::Content' );

I see there is no body_alt. Now what am I doing wrong?
