Applied, thanks.

A "tiny change" is a change that modifies <= than 20 lines.

I suggest this:

1. try to figure out what really prevents you from assigning your
   copyright to FSF (unless your job contract says "everything you write
   in your free time belongs to us", I don't see a real problem here, but
   of course I don't have all the cards in hands to judge appropriately.)

2. try to convince your boss/company that it can be useful.

3. try to give advice on the list in a way that makes it easy for others
   to create a patch.

But in your situation, submitting patches would just prevent us from 
getting your corrections into Emacs.

Sorry for these bureaucratic contraints, and thanks for your
understanding!
