Please report this upstream - ArchLinux does NOT need to patch software that the original developers should fix.

From upstream website:
"I am no longer working on streamtuner. At the time of this writing (December 3, 2007), the latest release still works well (except for the Live365 support), but it is unlikely that there will be another release of streamtuner in its current form."

The patch mentioned in the debian bugreport is a change to adapt to minor shoutcast changes. It's not a huge patch that changes loads of things.
One sidenote though: this bug is because shoutcast changed their indenting from tabs to no indenting at all. HTML/XML parsers that fail on these things are not fool-proof and will fail in the near future when shoutcast decides to change their indenting again.
