I just happened across a problem with the patch utility. Running the appended script with a freshly installed 4.4-release causes patch to give an error message and a core file. It says: Patching file LOCAL using Plan A... assertion "fillsrc==p_end+1 || fillsrc==repl_beginning" failed: "/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/patch/pch.c", line 768 Abort (core dumped) I would claim that this is the wrong response. Note, some sort of error is appropriate -- the patch file is for 4.3-release, and doesn't match the file that is being patched.
