I tried building a "fixed" package of patch, cherry-picking bug fix
patches from patch.git.

Unfortunately, the patches largely don't apply to the most recent
release of patch.

Since there is no release fixing these bugs, and no clear advice about
which patches to apply, I'm going to stop working on this for now.
