Hrm. I'll try to dig up a 2.6.9 kernel and check it out.
One note, most open source projects prefer the unified format of diff:

It gives everyone some context to the changes. (Including the patch(1)
utility which can then guess about the location if you move some code a

Could you create a bug entry in bugzilla (bugzilla.filesystems.org)?
