As far as I can tell, that patch has not been checked into HEAD as of 1.9.
This is from the diff between 1.8 and 1.8.4.1:

 +
 +#if 0 /* dmazzoni: this seems to cause problems */
      if( !SetPriorityClass( GetCurrentProcess(), HIGH_PRIORITY_CLASS ) ) /* PLB20010816 */
      {
          result = paHostError;
          sPaHostError = GetLastError();;
          goto error;
      }
 +#endif
 +

And this is the code in 1.9:

       * Thanks to Alberto di Bene for spotting this.
       */
      if( !SetPriorityClass( GetCurrentProcess(), HIGH_PRIORITY_CLASS ) ) /* PLB20010816 */
      {
          result = paHostError;
          sPaHostError = GetLastError();;
          goto error;
      }
      if( !SetThreadPriority( wmmeStreamData->engineThread, THREAD_PRIORITY_HIGHEST ) )
      {
