My last e-mail was overly curt.  Sorry about that.

As others have said, you can just submit the patch to the bug.  You will
generally be credited by the maintainer in the Debian changelog.

If you think the maintainer is taking too long to respond to your fix,
though, you can prepare an NMU, and then get a sponsor to upload it
(though this would be unusual for a bug of 'wishlist' severity).  Please
read up on our conventions for NMUs in the Debian Developer's Reference.

Thank you for your contribution.
