To build modernizr an additional source file is required (file.js) this file is added to missing-sources (it comes from the npm package of the same name from npm server or from upstreams repo). It is required by the build script from upstream.
The patch is only here to use that file. That way there is no need to create a Debian package for it (packaging npm nodes is beyond my knowledge and I'm not really interested in doing that). Concerning your other question, I don't understand it. The binary packages only ships the js & min.js, not the build script. The missing sources is required only by the build script iirc.
