This patch has been in master for a while (over 2 years), there is no need 
to apply it if you have a version 3.4.x or higher.

If you wish to patch things, in general, you need to gain skills:
1) do a successful git installation
-- not so hard, there are decent instructions on the wiki.
2) successfully install git bz
-- a little bit harder, because the instructions assume you understand how 
to install libraries and other dependencies based on error messages.
3) successfully learn to roll your own distribution.
-- ever harden, though there are instructions. And if you can do #2, then 
you might succeed at this. Though, there are ways to succeed which are not 
quite right.

Or, if you want, you could run through the patch by hand and make all the 
same changes manually, which requires extreme effort all the time, compared 
to a single learning curve effort in the steps I have suggested.
