You can obtain the current build with this change merged in here:


https://ci.openmicroscopy.org/job/BIOFORMATS-5.1-merge-build/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/artifacts/

For plain ImageJ, you can use either loci_tools.jar or
bioformats_package.jar; just download and copy to the plugins directory
and restart ImageJ.

For Fiji, it's a bit more annoying because you first have to remove all
the existing files related to bioformats before doing this.  See


https://github.com/bramalingam/bioformats/blob/Doc_Fiji_BFUpdate/docs/sphinx/users/fiji/index.txt

for some proposed instructions for doing this (it assumes the version is
5.0.7; just replace this with the version Fiji is currently using).

You might find it easier, for testing purposes, to use plain ImageJ
though.  When 5.1.1 is released, it should be updated in Fiji shortly after.


Kind regards,
Roger
