The only 100% safe option in my opinion would be to create a tool to do the patching. This tool might simply be a wrapper around some open-source patch tool with a suitable license and provide a Maven goal to do the patching. For Ant a matching wrapper should make sure the patches are applied equally in Ant and Maven.
