Here's how to modify version.c for Bill's patch if you compile several
vim versions on the same computer, maybe some with and some without +float:
--- src/version.c.orig 2008-11-30 21:58:27.000000000 +0100
+++ src/version.c 2008-11-30 21:53:08.000000000 +0100
@@ -811,2 +811,6 @@
{ /* Add your patch description below this line */
+/**/
+#ifdef FEAT_FLOAT
+ "Extra float functions (Bill McCarthy)",
+#endif
/**/
Similarly for any other patches whose code changes all require some
specific feature to be set.
The reason is that "make shadow" creates a shadow-directory where all
sources are represented by softlinks to the parent src directory, and
you don't want to unlink because it would mean patching version.c (which
is patched in every single official patch) separately in src/ and any
shadow folder(s) below it.
Best regards,
Tony.

For an idea to be fashionable is ominous, since it must afterwards be
always old-fashioned.
