Well the patch is this
https://github.com/bsdperimeter/pfsense-tools/blob/master/patches/RELENG_8_1/dummynet.RELENG_8.diff
It should apply to 8.x without problems.
Some manual work for any rejection might be needed because of other
patches present in pfSense.

But it has been widely tested and works better than previously and
takes into consideration the fast_io of dummynet either.

Just as a note that if you want to use pf together with ipfw enabled
at layer2(net.link.ether.ipfw=1) there are some other tweaks to do.
You can find them as well in those patches folder.
