I'm not trying to solve anything, we got a bug, patch was attached, no 
interest to work on it from its author, and no attempts to send/improve 
it from you guys by the way.

Of course not, I don't think we need them all.

I'm not sending something that even original author doesn't care about.

I think Dmitry knows how patch submission process works.
