This patch seems to need another patch.
This solution use patch util as used in linux world.

Lets say you install AIO in: "C:\Program Files (x86)\GrampsAIO"

Download patch util from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuwin32/files/patch/2.5.9-7/patch-2.5.9-7-bin.zip/download

Unzip patch.exe from him and put in AIO bin folder ("C:\Program Files
(x86)\GrampsAIO\bin)"

download first patch:
http://www.gramps-project.org/bugs/file_download.php?file_id=2231&type=bug

and second patch:
http://www.gramps-project.org/bugs/file_download.php?file_id=2233&type=bug
to for example C:\TEMP

open up console and go to bin folder:
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\GrampsAIO\bin"

when in bin folder type this two command:

patch -p0 --binary --verbose
..\share\gramps\plugins\textreport\DescendReport.py
C:\TEMP\DescendReport.py-numbering.patch-b

patch -p0 --binary --verbose ..\share\gramps\plugins\textreport
\DescendReport.py C:\TEMP\DescendReport.py-marriage.patch


Those "--verbose" switch is to see what is happening,
"--binary" serve to avoid problem with different line endings
If outputs looks like "Hunk #* succeeded at *" everything is going fine.
For example output in second command is:

Hmm...  Looks like a unified diff to me...

It opened the console-window an the Gramps program. In the console-window is nothing shown and it's not possible to type anything ...

Now, what's wrong?

Do not start Gramps, start only console :-)
In menu "START" --> "Run" --> type "cmd" and press "OK" for example of
one way to start console, then in opened window type those three command
