. . .

A really dirty way to do it would be to:
make extract patch;
[patch your file here];
make install
[beam with joy/crestfallen sigh]

should actually make the patch stick for one compile \
(until you hit make clean or make distclean again)

make clean deletes all the files in ${WRKDIR}

to maek you pathc more permanent (on your system) \
you'll have to edit the Makefile and add a patch of \
your own to the proper directory.

Love,
Franklin Pierce
