4. If you do not see all the expected results directly after the
installation, reboot your Kindle once more.

The "opt" directory (more specifically, the "jbpatch" subdirectory)
contains and controls the patches that are actually active on
your device. Consult opt/jbpatch/CONFIG.TXT for more information
about how patches are applied.

That would have been just good for me. The extra step made me to mount the root partition r/w and copy those files on Kindle's /opt partition...
Thanks for the suggestion (and for providing constructive criticism)!

I'll check this version in, but I don't know when a new release of the actual framework will be available.
