Curl.xs is contained in the distribution directory, see here. You should find it when you unpack the distribution tarball.

I'm sure that if you review your SLA you have with the module author that you will find there the terms for approriate inclusion of patches. Most likely, you will also find there where and how to reach the authors hotline where you get support appropriate to your level of SLA.

Maybe you're unaware that most of CPANs authors work on a voluntary basis and don't get paid, so your expectation that some fix be released within some specified frame of time seems a bit unreasonable. Usually, authors are receptive to some kind words though, so maybe you can ask the author how you could help them, or submit the changes as described in prose in the ticket as a pull request.
