I'd suggest passing the list of patches thru the environment - it
should be much easier to implement than commandline. Like this:
MY_PATCHES='j-random-hack.patch' emerge media-video/smplayer
Then you can edit /usr/portage/eclass/base.eclass, adding processing of
this var and all the patching you need to "base_src_util" function,
right after "unpack ${A}".
In fact, I think I've seen such thing already implemented somewhere,
but prehaps it's just a by-product of my imagination.
