"link" link on talkread.bml

It's been annoying me for some time that the link that says "link" on a comment on talkread.bml has a thread in it. It seems to be effectively equivalent to the thread link below the comment, except that following the view link scrolls the page down to the linked comment. Examples:
link
thread

I often copy the view link and manually remove the thread part when posting a link to another comment, which is tedious. Looking at talkread.bml (the first bit of LJ code I ever looked at!), this seems easy to fix: at line 524, remove the text "&thread=$dtid".

I don't have access to anything that will do the diff for me in the right format. Could someone help? Or maybe I should get a goathack - if so, how?
