[Dovecot] Cross-Realm Krb5 Patch

I've updated my krb5 cross-realm auth patch for dovecot 1.1-rc4; there
are not any (intentional) changes in functionality from the last
patch, the diff just didn't apply cleanly anymore. As before the most
recent version of the patch is available at: http://zinux.cynicbytrade.com/svn/servers/dovecot/cross-realm.diff.bz2

I see the cross-realm patch for Solaris made it into the mainline.
What if anything can I do to encourage the mainline adoption of my non- Solaris patch?
