I haven't written any C for 20 or more years, nor ever any Perl. 
Applying patches, especially when the replacement files are provided,
can't be too hard for someone who understand some code.  I can't write
Perl to save my life, but I can do what I'm told (that's not what SWMBO
says, but I believe I do!).

Patience....
