Better to post them to the list, I think, in case another developer can
get to it first, than relying on me alone.

Unfortunately, I can't get your patch to work, although it looks like
unified diff to me. I'm using TortoiseSVN and their docs say:

"Currently, only patch files in Unified Diff Format are supported. And
only files which were generated from a Subversion working copy. Other
formats like patch files generated by CVS are currently not supported!"

Your patch is --git, so could you generate it from SVN and re-post?
Otherwise, I'll have to manually make the changes.

Thanks,
Vaughan
