I'm running latest maint currently (which includeds the patch) and
I don't have that problem, so I'd say no, there's nothing wrong with
the patch (famous last words).

I don't understand what you did exactly: you installed a new version.
Does that version include the patch? Check org-table.el around line 439:
if the function just has a `lines' argument then it most likely includes
the patch. I hope you did not try to apply the patch on top of that.
If you did, go back, throw away the patch file (it's not useful any
longer), and reinstall.

If the version you installed does *not* have the patch, why would it
have *this* problem? It would exhibit the *different* problem
that you brought up earlier: deleting columns on export.
