Thanks.

No.  The META header is correct as it is.

When you patched the spider, did you also patch swish and recompile/install?
You need to apply the patch at
   http://sunsite.berkeley.edu/SWISH-E/Patches/spider2
also.  This patch is called "spider2", but it's actually a patch to the
swish-e C source.  Without it, the patch to the spider doesn't really help.
