If you can put your fix in a deb, you can host it in a personal package 
archive on an ubuntu site. https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart 
After some peer review, it could be picked up by the main distribution, 
or at least used by many people.  It could also be contributed to by 
others.  It would be a small project, but a popular one.  The ntfs r/w 
automount and autofsck started out in ways similar to this.
