I don't think those patches are submitted upstream. I checked diff between jtdx-hamlib's master with commit 954d70c143a9a0293371d8def3a7300ce3ca68c4 <https://github.com/Hamlib/Hamlib/commit/954d70c143a9a0293371d8def3a7300ce3ca68c4>, which has quite some differences. I am not a developer of either package, so I cannot tell which one/ones is necessary. As it turns out, the configure options seem a lot different from the official one. The following is in the README of jtdx-hamlib:
> $ ../src/configure --prefix=$HOME/hamlib-prefix 
> --disable-shared --enable-static 
> --without-cxx-binding --disable-winradio 
> CFLAGS="-g -O2 -fdata-sections -ffunction-sections" 
> LDFLAGS="-Wl,--gc-sections" 
While in hamlib and wsjtx-hamlib, the build configuration is:
> (arguments
>      `(#:configure-flags '("--disable-static"
>                            "--with-lua-binding"
>                            "--with-python-binding"
>                            "--with-tcl-binding"
>                            "--with-xml-support")))

I basically followed the existing package wsjtx-hamlib.
