In general, patches to wine should have some demonstrated benefit, either by increasing the number of passing conformance tests, or by making some app work better, or both.
Your current patch doesn't seem to do either of these things.
Getting into a pissing match with AJ about patent and copyright law is not a good strategy for potential contributors to wine. He generally knows his stuff, and I think he's right in this case.
If I were you, I'd go off and reflect for a while, then pick some other way to contribute.
