As far as I know this patch is irrelevant since the message is controlled by the GCL switch (setq compiler::*suppress-compiler-notes* t) http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/gcl-devel/2003-09/msg00189.html http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/gcl-devel/2003-09/msg00195.html Note that the patch is not used on Debian.
