I agree.  I've used the patches quite a bit with auctex-11.86 and they 
worked very well.  Unfortunately, the patches don't apply cleanly to CVS 
Head, so some tweaking will be necessary.  It should be pretty easy, but 
I'm not expert enough to do it myself.  I'm cc-ing Philip; I don't know 
if he's interested in doing this.
