I tried it here, and it applies cleanly:
[charlesc@charon qmail-test]$ wget http://www.qmail.org/big-concurrency.patch
--14:19:19-- http://www.qmail.org:80/big-concurrency.patch
=> `big-concurrency.patch'

You must be using patch incorrectly. For this patch, you should be in the
unpacked qmail source tree top directory, and strip one directory component
(-p1). Perhaps you were in the wrong directory?
