 I may have ballsed-up the diff patchfile. I tried using cvs diff to
 make it, but because the patches/patch-xx are all new, it couldn't do
 it. (I don't have cvs commit privs obviously, so I can't add them that
 way) -so I hand crafted what I thought would work by touching
 patches/patch-xx.orig to make a diff -bu against.
 
 what I sent appears to make the patches in the top-dir of the pkg. I
 just moved them into the patches/ dir and they worked fine.
 
 I'm not sure I sent a patch on distfile, the usual make makepatchsum
 worked fine too.
 
 sorry for the hassle, if you want me to re-send let me know.
