Right now, there are two versions of the clipboard code — one source file that gets included for 32-bit builds, and one that gets included for 64-bit builds. All the changes in that patch were to the 64-bit source file only, and thus shouldn’t have any effect one way or another on 32-bit builds, so really the only thing that should break is trying to run the 64-bit version on Leopard (does anyone actually try to do that?).
