AFAIK, the wine patch in question was using some of Muse's work, including the ilok tweaks as they were the only ones who were able to make it work and the guy who maintained this patch didn't want that work to die (including the RT tweaks Muse originally did as well).
Again, Muse offered their fork changes to Wine but they declined to add them even though Muse said they weren't that extensive and pretty easy to add. Hence the reason the patch being discussed here came to be - so that work wouldn't be lost. Unfortunately, that seems to be exactly what happened.
