Well gitorious is good for something! The patches still exist! I've put them
here if anyone wants to do something with them:

https://www.dropbox.com/home/Public/Patches/MoveModels

They worked, and have no bugs that I'm aware of. They were rejected it was

to actually do the necessary work.  I don't know if they still apply.
