Big text is now fixed. The LP bug had a proposed solution in it
already, too, which you could have used. Also, you can now try this:
./configure --enable-coord64

I have one, but Objective-C and Cocoa are completely alien to me,

Well, I wanted a few people to try it to see if it worked, but
apparently I need to ask a wider audience to get enough testers.

Always true for any new feature you want to use. Wait until there's a
stable release with that feature, then migrate forward.
In 2005 Debian had 1200 maintainers for 8400 packages.
The patch-maintainer does not have to cherry pick anything.
So what you're asking for is a release manager. Ok, put up some money
to hire one, because we don't have anyone to do that at the moment.
Meanwhile, please stop suggesting changes that require more man-power.
