I was just giving the URL of the beginning of the thread.  The URLs you 
cited contain the improvements by Paul and me that I referred to.  I 
should have said that.

The most recent version of the patch is in

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2011-12/msg00720.html

in which Paul says, "And there's more where this came from -- that code 
is pretty crufty...."

So I don't know if that patch should just be applied now or if Paul 
plans to do more cleanup.
