While I agree it's annoying to have the patches fail, I'm still happy I was able to find dwmfifo, it's quite useful to me and the patches aren't so rotten that they're hard to figure out. So maybe just fix the misleading file names? Also might be nice if the dates in the names corresponded to an actual date of a commit (I guess at the moment they correspond to the nearest earlier commit but I haven't checked). Britton
