I have installed the new version, and updated the catalogue repository.
Thanks for the upload.
Users may view the package's catalogue entry at
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/etoolbox.html
or browse the package's directory at
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/etoolbox/
The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) overnight tonight.

etoolbox – e-TeX tools for LaTeX
The package is a toolbox of programming facilities geared primarily towards LaTeX class and package authors. It provides LaTeX frontends to some of the new primitives provided by e-TeX as well as some generic tools which are not strictly related to e-TeX but match the profile of this package. Note that the initial versions of this package were released under the name elatex.
The package provides functions that seem to offer alternative ways of implementing some LaTeX kernel commands; nevertheless, the package will not modify any part of the LaTeX kernel.
