It has not been merged in.  The problem was that static globals are not
allowed in Symbian, and are used in quite a number of places.  Tor
posted a possible solution for that [1], but it would require a lot of
changes to be made.

If Tim or Matthias can comment and mention whether this solution would
be acceptable, I'd be willing to try to adapt the gtk rewriter to try to
automatically convert the global statics to use Tor's macro.
