You can indeed delete such things, but patch should be able to cope. As for 
the POTFILES.in, it's fine but does look a little perverse. My box does 
something similar. Generally speaking, I delete it too, or at a pinch edit it 
by hand.

You only really need to take care is to respect line numbers:
@@ -29,6 +32,8 @@

The problem that we've been experiencing with your patches to date is no 
doubt because these line numbers have become incorrect because writing to 
console can lead to line-wrap.
