This is a different bug. Bug 2995 is about that when you set the paragraph where the table is in to
centered, it is correctly handled by LyX 1.3 but not by LyX 1.4 and later. So this is about the
paragraph alignment outside the table, not inside.
A better patch is attached. I suggest to put it in and open a new one for the
problem you described.
