If the patch doesn't work
The patches author clearly stated that the patch was incomplete only dealing with word size differences not endian differences (so it will fix compatibility between i386 and amd64 but not between those architectures and say powerpc). That should be easilly fixed though.

 I'll rather provide the datafiles unpakked.
Making it arch any is really undesirable, the fact that we are frozen
does not mean we should go for quick, sub-optimal fixes.
Sure, but equally it is time to keep fixes simple and unlikely to cause regressions.

It seems the issue isn't as bad as my initial reading of the bugreport suggested, it seems the issue is only about a "pak" type format (with only a few fields involved) , not about the main game data formats. So a proper fix shouldn't be too risky.
