You actually requoted the answer yourself, from Ramil (who made the patches):

So - if you need it today, and you have a source licence, contact me
privately, providing your community username and password, and I'll
fix you up with the patch. If you are using the evaluation version,
you can go back to IBO 4.6B, which is available at the Downloads page.

If you can wait until tomorrow, IBO 4.6C should be out, with the bug solved.
