man page says:
patch  tries  to  skip  any leading garbage, apply the diff, and then skip any
trailing garbage.  Thus you could
feed an article or message containing a diff listing to patch, and it  should 
work.   If  the  entire  diff  is
indented  by  a  consistent amount, or if a context diff contains lines ending
in CRLF or is encapsulated one or
more times by prepending "- " to lines starting with "-" as specified by
Internet RFC 934, this  is  taken  into
account.   After removing indenting or encapsulation, lines beginning with #
are ignored, as they are considered
to be comments.
