OK, so what would be required:
a) Update bsd.pkg.mk for one patch file (keeping PATCHFILES and
patch-local* as is).
b) Nuke patch-sum code from bsd.pkg.mk.
c) Produce a script to remove patch-sum files and merge patch
files for all pkgsrc.
d) Update pkgdiff to handle splitting/joining and working with
joined patchfiles.
e) Update pkglint, and port2pkg to match.
_Iff_ people are happy with the above, then I'll try to get the changes
to you in time for your reorg - would that be OK?
