Why do we need a patch ? That's exactly what the -k option is good for.
You copy the /etc/skel directory to a directory of your choice, let's say /root/skel.
You shuffle the permission bits of it the way you need them.
After that you can use:
useradd -k /root/skel -m <user>
Alternatively you can do a chmod on /etc/skel. (though I would prefer option #1.)
