Some version of the patch is in bugzilla:
http://bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=120443

And the most recent update from Fred AFAICT was:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/dia-list/2009-January/msg00000.html
(just found a moment ago)

Apparently I somehow lost track in the fall 2008 ;)

For someone interested in autolayout integration with Dia maybe the Layout 
plug-in started 2011 would be a better starting point:
