When a port runs distpatch, the backup file suffix is set to DISTORIG
(default: .bak.orig) so changes from distribution patches and those
from local patches can be kept apart.
This doesn't work any longer; DISTORIG is ignored and distribution
patches also generate .orig files. The problem in bsd.port.mk is that
at the end of the PATCH_* section, the previously configured suffix is
overridden:
.if ${PATCH} == "/usr/bin/patch"
PATCH_ARGS+= --suffix .orig
PATCH_DIST_ARGS+= --suffix .orig
.endif
I don't know how long this has been broken. I don't see any recent
changes and I don't understand the purpose of the section quoted
above. An obvious workaround is "export PATCH=patch".
