Just a thought: This is not the only time, where a hack is used to fix a
specific problem/application that is unacceptable for inclusion into the
source tree. How about adding a hacks/ directory where patches like this
one can be collected and (more or less) maintained? The maintainance would 
be the responsibiblity of those who use the patch.
