Thanks - it seems MSVS 6.0 was released in 1998, so that means it's been
supported for at least 20 years.

Is there anything I need to do to help get this patch applied?

It's been over two months now so it seems likely it's just been
overlooked and I need to ping it or something.

Is this mailing list still the appropriate place to submit patches?  I
sent it here because https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/libtool.html
says to.

Cheers,
