6.x-1.2 will not function unless patch is applied

I was having trouble trying to decide to file this under a bug report or lack of documentation, however I opted with a bug report. This module will not return any information from Facebook when used as downloaded. You need to use a patch from this issue queue that changes the file_get_contents() to drupal_http_request() in order for it to work. I see two available options.

1. Fix the issue, a patch is already available for the D7 version
2. Document on the project page that the patch is necessary.

The link to the D7 patch is here https://drupal.org/node/1587598. Using the same principal to patch the D6 module works as well.
