Make that:

    patch -p0 < your.diff

Otherwise patch(1) has a nasty habit of creating any new files in the
current working directory, rather than where intended.  I know this
because I was looking at compiling the alpha version of the jdk-1.4.1
stuff yesterday, and precisely that difference had me perplexed for a
while.

        Cheers,
