When I send messages like that it means applied to the sources that
are released at http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/dist/.

And that patch is in the sources packages there (after May/2008).

Note that there is no git/svn/cvs access to these.

All other archives, like this one, and the many others around the internet,
are maintained by others. I really have no idea who, or even if, they track
the uClinux-dist releases or are even maintained at all.
