I think it actually does work -- if it's Gordan Bobic you're thinking 
of, he (rather unhelpfully) corrected himself on a different thread:
http://osdir.com/ml/general/2013-05/msg42553.html

"I stand corrected! Jan's patch does in fact fix the problem. I have no 
idea what I was doing wrong, but I just tried it again (for the 4th 
time) just to make sure, uninstalled the old packages, installed the new 
ones - and now it works! There must have been a stale file somewhere 
that was breaking it."
