Ah, I see. The Fedora package maintainer would like the problem fixed in the
font itself, not as a one-off patch. That makes sense -- that way it gets
fixed for everyone in the world, not just Fedora. However, it looks like
that project might be dead upstream? That is, it never migrated from
Debian's old tracker to the new one, and the mailing list for it 
https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cjkunifonts-devel
does not seem to exist either.

I'd suggest mentioning all this in your existing Red Hat Bugzilla bug, and
hopefully then the Fedora package maintainer can help figure out what to do
next.
