Honestly, it's probably not as hard as you think. You could probably at 
least fix the help text with:

$ tla tag -S address@hidden/tla--candidate--1.2.2--patch-1 \
        tla--helpfix--1.2.2

$ tla get tla--helpfix--1.2.2 tla
$ cd tla/libarch

$ $EDITOR cmd-register-archive.c
<fix fix fix>

doesn't have to do any work>

$ tla changes
$ tla commit

<Email a bug with [BUG] Tla Help Text to gau>

The only thing that you need is a public repository that people can get 
your patch from. And if you don't have one, jblack will give you one if 
you go to:
http://sourcecontrol.net/?m=getmirrored
Or
http://sourcecontrol.net/?m=getaccount
