The patch I uploaded was written against 1.480.1 (the LTS branch /stable), not against the bleeding edge code, hence I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't apply directly.
One would hope that this sort of bug would be fixed in the LTS build as well (as that's what I'm running, and I found this JIRA by googling against the error I was seeing!).

The patch itself is dead trivial and probably easier for someone with commit-rights to hand-craft the code instead of doing a patch - just surround the call to Kernel32Utils in a try/catch, catch NoClassDefFoundError and ignore it, allowing execution to continue on to the general case.
i.e. replace

return Kernel32Utils.isJunctionOrSymlink(file);

with

try {
    return Kernel32Utils.isJunctionOrSymlink(file);
} catch (NoClassDefFoundError ex) {
    /*
     * Kernel32 does not load reliably.
     * If it fails, fall through to the manual method.
     */
}
