Could you please elaborate on what fails to work with these patterns?

AFAIK, it's true Babel doesn't know a language german-x-... and this line

  \usepackage[german-x-2009-06-19]{babel}

should throw an error (not tested).

The point in these pattern definitions is to use them with package
hyphsubst to replace the patterns associated with a language name
without Babel's notice.  So a proper setup to activate these patterns
for German were

  \RequirePackage{hyphsubst}
  \documentclass{article}
  ...
  \HyphSubstLet{german}{german-x-2009-06-19}
  \usepackage[german]{babel}
