This patch doesnt fit the version you are using.
There were conflicting changes made to this file
in the meantime. You have to merge manually.
Which version was current or under development
at the time the patch was sent in? You may
downlaod this version, patch it then diff it
with your current version, probably using a
three way diff tool (wonderful: FileMerge on
MacOS X, comes as a utility with the developer
tools). Or, you just read the patch, try to
understand, then reimplement it for the current
version. This approach might be easier in some
cases. You should use a decent editor that
helps you in highlighting java syntax and
jump to the apropriate section where the
methods are implemented. The same is true
for classes although it takes me wonder that
it even messes up with them as there is usually
only one per file. You are not a programmer?
Me not either. But you can come to an under-
standing by reading after a short kickstart.
You could also vote and promote your favourite
patches so that they get in with the next
release.

Bye, Christian
