You apply a patch using the "patch" command line utility.

In a shell, assuming your current directory is
[your-base-directory]/softsqueeze/SlimProtoLib, typing

patch -p0 < squeezeslave_patch.txt

should do it.  You should probably try the '--dry-run' option, which
will tell you what will happen without actually doing it, so you'll
avoid garbling your sources if my recipe doesn't work.

There are probably more ways: you can do "man patch" in your shell to
get more details.

Note that I'm saying all this without being able to try it: I'm not at
home right now.  The point I'm not certain about is whether
subversion's diff format is compatible with what "patch" understands. 
Normally, "patch" is the natural counterpart of the "diff" program,
whose output is understood by patch.  My guess is that they'll be
compatible, but that's just my guess.
