It will be noticed automagically. As it has a patch associated, you
should have submitted it as a patch, though - some of us (including
myself) give patches higher priority, as they indicate that the
submitter is willing to do all the work. If a patch fixes a definite
bug, and it is clearly correct, I'll try to apply it right away (when
I notice it). If it is a patch, and it is dubious (e.g. incomplete, or
the problem is incorrectly described, ...), I'll ask for further
information. If it is a bug report, and it is not for code that I have
written myself, I ignore it.

P.S. I have reclassified it as a patch.
