I am pretty sure quite some patches have never been reported to
upstream.

I believe upstream prefers to receive patches via 
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=103&atid=300103 (although there
are a few hundreds of patches in the queue there.)

Anyway, I feel submitting the Debian patches upstream is very useful.

Thanks, Bye,
