Sorry, can you give the exact versions of the kernel packages that fixed this for Debian?

Even if it's still a case that all server-side perms are ignored, dropping this patch is still an improvement for users wanting symlink support, apparently. So I agree with dropping it, as long as we're sure the kernel changes are in place.
