The patch has two changes in it, but unfortunately I can't tell what he's
trying to achieve as the whole site is in Japanese.

The first is incorrect as it breaks retrieving database object information
via DatabaseMetaData calls because it forces all parameters to lowercase.
This makes it impossible to get information on objects with capital
letters in their name.

The second change makes ResultSet.getString() on a boolean column return
"true" or "false" instead of "t" or "f".  This breaks the existing
behavior of getString returning the exact string the server returned and
would probably cause backwards compatibility problems for many people.  I
would be interested to know why this change was necessary.
