Couldn't you add

https://github.com/la5nta/pat/commit/43788c1b73e5616a6f6ec0dd37eea4b89d77da85

to debian/patches?  That could also give confidence to the patch, which
may help upstream.  If a new upstream release is expected soon, waiting
seems fine, but if it takes more than 2-3 weeks I suggest trying the
patch.
