Can you be a bit more specific? When were these changes made and what is the
issue with the user flag? For example, copy the code and comment on what part
you don't understand.

Essentially build_patches just subdivides each cells into NxN subcells and
does a (bi-/tri-)linear interpolation from the mother cell to the children.
Since no output format I'm aware of supports writing higher order polynomials
than linears, this is the only way to get at least some part of the
information from higher order basis functions to the screen.
