applets-fallback.patch - needs explaining what it achieves
init-console.patch - needs explaining why this is necessary
make_gen_build_files_skip_quilt.patch
- needs to add comment and use less mind-bending escaping (.\?\* - ???)
shell-ash-export-HOME.patch - exports PATH. bash doesn't do it. Why?
strip.patch - why? it seems to work fine as-is
swaponoff-FreeBSD-support.patch, u-mount-FreeBSD-support.patch - big, needs
review
version.patch - why?
The rest was already in git, or has been pushed to git.
