Yes, I was "replied to" on that very subject last night. It isn't quite as nice as going to "downloads" and looking for the patches for a "released production version", however it does work. But then it requires the end user to basically end up being a developer. Who has the time, money, or capacity to load up a compile environment for a source patch other than developers?

The delta system was intended to have a patch jukebox which would let you have e.g. checkboxes and would apply fixes you wanted and spit out a patched tarball, if one was doable, forcing you, potentially, to take dependancies. The metadata needed to do it isn't there, but it's close.
