Well, your patch will work in my situation, but I think your solution is
wrong:

Remember that the documentation says, that you can install sys/extlinux
in whatever subdirectory you want. For example "/boot/myBootloader"
should also work.

Your solution would require, that if you want any custom path, that you
have to patch... that sounds wrong to me.

So I think we need clarification if a custom subdirectory should still
be supported in syslinux v5. If yes, there is somewhere a bug. If not,
the setup should offer this option and documentation needs an update.
