(Get the code!)
I have tried applying your patch. To build on the Nexus 7 I had to add a build dependency on libgles2-mesa-dev and then the tablet compiled XBMC in 90 minutes but did not succeed to make a package due to an dh-shlibdeps problem on libgles2-mesa. I could start the compiled binary via
./xbmc.bin
in the main directory of the source at least, only with the problem that xbmc assumes a portrait screen whereas the desktop is landscape (and a video app should be used in landscape). So at least the program starts, meaning that the GLES support is correct now.
Then I tried out whether the build servers could package the patched XBMC. I test-built on a PC (amd64) to be sure nothing is broken (15 minutes) and uploaded this. Unfortunately it FTBFS already during ./configure due to a Python problem (why did the previous version build on the build servers then?).
So we are at least a step further knowing that your patch worked. Now we must hope that someone steps up making the package build and solving the landscape problem.
