Which is actually somewhat underlining the point :-) - if you absolutely
need to do this outside of OpenVPN, it can be done, but how to do that
depends on interface technology used, specific distribution used (what
if your distribution doesn't *have* udhcp?), etc.

Personally, I tend to 

 - either do it by run-time-parsing of "ip addr show" and feeding to
   "openvpn --local $ip" in a script-wrapper

 - or try to understand why this is needed in the first place :-) - I still
   don't understand why not binding to anything + --multihome isn't working

As for including the patch, in either form, I'd rather wait for the
to-be-implemented-and-cleaned-up "multi-listen" infrastructure that
someone will hopefully implement for 2.3...
