Don't see how this would be any different if you were to roll your own. You're going to have some aspect of upkeep regardless of what you use to get the job done.

I personally would rather replace the 2 directories Smarty is contained in with 2 new ones and be done, rather than find out how someone is exploiting my code and writing a patch for it myself.
