Quick answers as I have to leave very soon.

Blacklistd source is in /usr/src/contrib/blacklistd/bin

Apply the patch there.

To recompile it go to /usr/src/usr.sbin/blacklistd and do the make =
there.

To find the new execuitable go to =
/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/usr.sbin/blacklistd and put the blacklistd =
there into /usr/libexec

Note the amd64.amd64 directory will be different if you are not on an =
amd64 machine.  There will probably be only one directory there and it =
will be the right one.
