List-defined references now supply the main functionality of removing the
clutter of lengthy references and cite templates from the main article text,
which I believe was the main point of Bill's patch.

The only other functionality that this patch allowed was to enable the
footnotes to be placed and displayed in any order. There is no advantage in
changing the display order of footnotes away from the auto-numbered sequence
that is currently applied, so that part is unnecessary. In the edit box,
list-defined references can now be placed in any desired order anyway while
still producing the same displayed output, so LDR takes care of that part of
the functionality of this patch as well.

I would suggest that this patch is therefore completely superseded.
