What do you mean by "real" patch?
The one I checked in:
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/d8f9588c6ba1
is not the same as the one that appears in the attachment of the
message:
https://www-old.cae.wisc.edu/pipermail/octave-maintainers/2009-April/012050.html
an earlier version of which appears here:

The patches that I posted as attachments are for loading objects from
files. That's why I thought you used them as the basis for your
recent patch.
The patch that I checked in just added the exemplar infrastructure,
and used it in the class constructor to ensure that all objects of a
given class have the same layout as the first one that is constructed.
