It does.

It seems that there are style files like art11.sty and class option
files like bk11.clo.  My TeX distribution only has bk{10,11,12}.clo, but
none of the art<size>, rep<size> or j-* files.  But when you google for
them, you'll find them.

Yes, the changes look good to me.  Then I'll wait for a complete patch
with ChangeLog before committing.
