I have verified on my cygwin 1.1.2 system that there are no problems
applying patches. I even did a fresh reinstall just to be sure.

The only situation I can imagine could cause problems would be if you
applied the patch using a textmode mount point, but then built via a
binmode mount point. But I tried that too, and that works!

So are you sure there isn't some other problem with your setup? If you (or
other people - anyone?) are having genuine problems here, help me find out
what the difference is between your setup and mine.
