Thanks--I couldn't find the patch.exe in WinCVS (using 1.3 beta, and not their 1.2 version.) I downloaded a GPL port to Windows from here: http://www.circlemud.org/maillist/1998-01/0083.html.
The version I downloaded works, only issue is that I need to save the file-to-be-revised into Unix format first (/r/n->/n) before applying the patch.
