I downloaded it when the announce first came across. QuantumG said
he wasn't sure about the stability of where he uploaded it, so
you can get it from my ftp site at x8b4e53cd.dhcp.okstate.edu.
(Not terribly stable in itself, but it should be good for a few
months.)

It's a clean patch. Unfortunetly, I can't get it to configure, but that 
just might indicate my incompentence. I talked with the author some about
the copyright, he said that it was covered under "the GNU license", but
never responded after I mentioned that the FSF would want the copyright.
