Sorry that we did not include this patch in time, but your version of
the patch is:

And newest upstream (0.8.1.pre4) is:
#define DRIVER_VERSION          "$Revision: 1.21 $"
#define DRIVER_AUTHOR           "Daniel Melander <lirc at rajidae.se>, Martin Blatter <martin_a_blatter at yahoo.com>"

So it looks like upstream already fixed it and this patch is no longer
neccessary.

Do you agree?
