This is because you run most probably from the wrong directory.
Please look at the README.patchset from patchset-0.98.7.tgz:
============================================
To apply the patch proceed as follows:

  cd /where/I/have/dosemu
  tar -xzf patchset-0.98.7.tgz
  sh tmp/do_patch
============================================
The /where/I/have/dosemu refers to a directory containing dosemu source
code tree (created e.g. by 'tar xfzk dosemu-0.98.6.tgz' command)

So the answer is, you should not be asked this question.
