Ideally, you would submit the patch, as a context diff, to this mailing
list and then add the patch to our 'CommitFest' system:
http://commitfest.postgresql.org

There is quite a bit of additional guideance on what a patch should look
like, etc, here: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Submitting_a_Patch

I'm not too familiar with the JDBC parts, you might post this question
to the JDBC mailing list.

We currently use and pretty heavily depend on OpenSSL.  I'm not sure how
much that matters when it comes to JDBC.
