2.6.x is next on my list, then we'll focus on 3.x.x.  Probably have a
patch cleaned and ready to post within a few days here.

What is the purpose of this patch? I.e. why are you submitting it to
this bug tracker?

"This patch adds preliminary support for Haiku." In case you were
wondering what Haiku was, it is the open source replacement for BeOS,
see haiku-os.org for more background.
As for part two of your question, is there somewhere else I should be
posting patches?  If so direct me and I'll post them there.
