There is no reason to patch browse-urk for this. The following also works:

(if (eq system-type 'darwin)
    (setq browse-url-generic-program
	  "openurl"))

where openurl is the shellscript:

#!/bin/sh
osascript -e 'open location "'$*'"'

I think the do-applescript solution requires a patched emacs, doesn't it?
