No.

Because the indices need to be rebuilt, the only realistic opportunity for applying this patch to Postgres.app is when releasing a major new version, since then people need to migrate their data anyway. That's why I wanted to apply the patch when 9.4 is released.

I'm starting to see that maybe not all bugs can be fixed right now; I'm now waiting for input from the other contributors on Github.
