Well, I can't exactly change the layout on an existing board without getting a new board. And as I said in that post you quoted, immediately after the part you quoted, "If I gotta change the layout in a major way like that it'll mean getting new prototype PCBs which will burn an extra week or two and probably a couple hundred bucks." Since it's been about five days (quite a bit less than two weeks), no I haven't gotten it figured out - or at least, I haven't yet verified that the changes I made to the design actually work yet.
