Richard, I love your patches and install them regularly for each version
of Mailman. In fact, I wait for your patches to come out before
upgrading!

Thanks for the kind words and thought.
It is really a shame that they are not included in the original Source Code. I think in our last straw poll of the users, the consensus of the group was overwhelmingly in favor of rolling your code into the Source.
We may simply need to provide an alternate download location that has your code already patched into the source - and an rpm made from that source. I believe some folks have already done this on a piece-meal basis.
As a first step I have done what you suggested and built some patched MM source distributions. They are posted on my own web site at http://www.openinfo.co.uk/mailman/prepack.html
If you were interested in cooking an RPM version to post there too ...
Originally, the only reason I set up my www.openinfo.co.uk site with Mailman patches on it was because of problems a release or two back, when uploading the revised #444884 patch to sourceforge broke some configured in memory limit on their PHP page rendering code.
The problem recurred on 1st October when I uploaded the revised #444884 patch for MM 2.1.3 and I am still waiting for something other than a canned response from the support folks at sourceforge. See:
