- Would it be impossible to put all patched source files (not just
- diffs) available, maybe in tar format. Then we, who have hacked kernel
- to fit our needs could just cd to /usr/src and 'tar xvf'. Then just
- recompile patched parts of the system (kernel and a few system binaries).
- Much easier than sexy automatic patch installation systems, IMHO.
