The answer is yes. This should not be merged into the master
due to funambol's changes for this issue. That example is absolutely not 
conformable to
the vcard2.1 spec. 
Lukas, please ignore this patch. Thanks.

Regards,
Yongsheng

Yes, Funambol currently sends that to SyncEvolution when it really means
TEL;TYPE=WORK. This is a hack specifically for SyncEvolution which has
other negative consequences (work phone number gets lost during full
round-trip syncs), so Funambol will remove it.

Yongsheng, do you agree that we no longer need this patch? It has never
been merged into our master branch either.
