Well, just applying the changes to the upstream source would have been the smallest change, although admittedly possibly not as clean from a later maintenance perspective. Rule #1 on the freeze policy document says "please do not make changes to the package that are not related to fixing the bugs in question"; I guess one could stretch an argument that making it a separated patch is related, but mmv as to how suitable it is.
