It appears that this patch is not exactly correct. Using patch version 2.1b
on my slackware linux-2.0.30 kernel,
I get the following error:

Hmm...  The next patch looks like a new-style context diff to me...
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------

	From one other report, it appears that the line is too long for
2.1b to handle...it was tested and works fine under FreeBSDs patch 2.1...
