    Hrv> What options have you used?

    Hrv> I remember that the syntax of some options has changed.

Compile options or runtime options?  Compile options are the same as
kernel build.

Runtime is:

gunzip < xxx.patch.gz | patch -p1

Running without -s, it just seems to patch 1 file (or maybe 2) and
just exit.  No segfault, dump, or anything else.
