Comment #7 has an attachment of a patch that I'd like to try out.

I can't seem to figure out how to get the thing patched in.

quick answer:
download the source and then patch it.
cd /directory/with/source/code
patch -p0 < /path/to/patch

then compile the source and install it.

if you have more questions this is the place to get help- just let folks know exactly what you did and paste the error messages.
