Comment (by sluicebox):

 Thanks for reporting this. It's going to take some work before we can add
 this though.

 First, this patch is distributed as three installers: 2.0A, 2.0B, and 2.1.
 The installers modify the target LSL1VGA resource volumes instead of
 adding SCI patch files, so this is would need to be more than just one
 detection entry for whichever version this is.

 The bigger problem is that even if we add these entries, they won't work.
 If these patches are run as French under ScummVM then they will crash
 almost immediately with VIEW 1051 NOT FOUND. These patches took the
 Spanish version and modified its resources, so it only works when run as
 Spanish. We would have to do something to hack around that, and it's a
 little more complicated since this is a dual language game that can switch
 to English.

 At the script level, LSL1:printLang must only equal English or Spanish for
 these patches to run.
