Comment (by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 I'm afraid not... I run a customized version of WP and I've set up a
 dedicated svn for it. The patches I can generate won't work any more with
 your svn than the ones you're generating on mine. In the future, I'll try
 to set it up with WP as an external reference. Until then, I'm stuck with
 reporting bugs and findings. ;-)

 Speaking of which, the above fix is not the only necessary change. The My
 Category Order plugin doesn't work as documented. There's a db query
 beneath the above code in get_terms() that also needs an extra table to
 avoid DB errors. And then, you get duplicate results all over the place.

 I stopped looking into the issue upon getting the latter, as I had more
 important stuff to care about at the moment.

 Still, the WP DB schema has a term_order field that is just asking to
 become useful. Maybe the plugin's developer will come up with the fix?
