Bugfix does not appear in the upstream provider's code

I have an issue at the CentOS Bug Tracker: http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=4508. It is open since 2010. I uploaded the bugfix as well but the fix does not appear in the upstream provider's code. It is really annoying that new version of mkinitrd comes out regularly I always have to patch it manually to avoid system bootup failure. The new versions of mkinitrd show that there is a code mamagement activity going on.
Both the issue and the fix is trivial. My question is: I am not familiar the way the code management is done. What should I do to get the main branch of the source code patched to avoid regular patching at my site?
