Okay, this means that tetex-base's version will vanish without problems,
and only thailatex's will be there, right?

Last time I looked at it, babel.sty differed from tetex-base's version
only in one line, the addition of the thai language.  It should also
change the version number to indicate that the file was patched.  Have
you added this?  If yes, I'm willing to sponsor it.

I'm not sure, I also have the impression that, with the existing
diversion, there's no problem of a conflict.  However, I generally trust
Steve to know why he does things, and it doesn't hurt much.  So maybe
you should add it.
