Description
The BS2 code contains a few busy-wait loops, waiting for the palette to fade up or down. To get past these, we need to implement the FadeServer() function, so that's what this patch does.

I guess this won't apply anymore, now that the engine has been renamed to Sword2. Still, were there any reasons why one would not apply this?

I was a bit busy earlier, but now I have a chance to look at it yes there is reason to not apply it.
At least not without some modification.
For one I don't see how it could have compiled when it referenced _system instead of _syst , it also relies on some timer related things that aren't included in the patch. I think erik may have been a little too eager when he based this around bass code? :)
that and its probably better to leave the function as taking no arguments instead of passing an engine state, use the g_sword2 global for now, but this will probably turned into a graphics/screen class or some such at some point.

I'm confused.
The patch refers to _system because that's one of the members of the Engine class. I didn't even realize we also had a _syst in Sword2State. Is that one really needed? It may be worth noting that Sword2State::parseEvents() uses _system.
The "timer related things" aren't included in the patch because it uses our own standard timer code. That's why I had to change FadeServer() to take a void * parameter.
