I released the new Windows installer but without this patch. That said,
the patch/PR you linked to makes sense. Does the patch have an active
maintainer? If yes, then I propose is that we

- Fork OpenSC/pkcs11-helper to OpenVPN/pkcs11-helper
- Apply the patch to our fork
- Produce and publish our own pkcs11-helper tarballs
- Point openvpn-build to our tarballs
- Periodically rebase our fork with upstream

Thoughts?
