I think that Kevin already replied to you on this but I thought I'd 
answer as well.

Here's what I do:

get -current from cvs
make my modifications
`cvs diff -u` (which give you a unified diff as STDOUT)
capture the output to a file <some name>.diff
attach it to an email addressed to the dev mailing list with an 
explanation as to what it is for

if the email is overlooked then you can submit it as an enhancement, not 
a bug, to bugzilla.mindrot.org
