Link to the patch submission? I'll chase it up.

As I said every time I asked for the patch to be sent upstream, "tell me
and I'll make sure it gets applied so we can bump the version dep and do
a release". You appear to have forgotten that stage - or I didn't notice
the mail you sent saying you'd sent the patch upstream.

Oh well, as I say I'll get it chased up. And if he -rejects- the patch,
then sure we'll workaround locally. But he told me he wouldn't do that,
which is why I was asking to be told so I could chase it up having been
the person to persuade him such a patch should be sent. Never mind ...
