If it works and has no effect on the observable behavior for ASCII
input, then I have no objection, just a reminder:  You need to change
the version numbers in the code and documentation (preferably to
something containing at least one letter), and add an entry to the
releasenotes file.

As for incorporating the patch upstream, I think I first want to fix a
minor problem with 8-bit support.  (Par 1.51 and earlier was written for
7-bit ASCII.  Par 1.52 claimed to add support for 8-bit charsets, but
didn't get it completely right.)  Also, when I add multibyte support, I
might want to add awareness of double-width characters at the same time
(here I mean the width on the display, not in memory).
