You still haven't written a log message. This is the single biggest
obstacle preventing people from paying attention to the patch. You said
you "didn't have time" to write one yesterday, yet you've spent time
since then adding more code instead (?)

Don't underestimate the importance of the log message, or the importance
of responding to feedback from other developers. Participating in an
open-source project is more than just throwing patches over a wall. :-)
