... and that patch fixes the loopback functionality for me.

Just for reference... Without that patch the files were read with their
correct size, but contained just null bytes:

grub> loopback loop archlinux.iso
grub> cat (loop)/arch/version
<0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0>
grub>

So one fixed, thanks!
