Hi Matt.

I ended up manually patching this.  It failed every time, using patch.
Luckily, in this case, it was just a simple 1 liner.

I finally tracked down the problem.  I noticed you used cvs to create
the patch.

It is apparently a bug with cvs 1.12.13 on Dragonfly.  I tested with cvs
1.11.20 on NetBSD and it worked properly, so it is apparently a bug cvs
has introduced in the newer version.

When using the -p option to diff when running under cvs, it outputs
a broken patch file.  The problem is that it outputs the previous line
at the end of the '@@' line rather than the function name.

# cvs diff -u -p md.c
Index: md.c

        sc->dev->si_drv1 = sc;
+       sc->dev->si_iosize_max = DFLTPHYS;
+
        return (sc);
 }


========================

It worked properly with the same options using diff directly.
The output should look like this.

# diff -u -p md.c md.c-manually_patched

--- md.c	2007-09-04 01:30:23.000000000 -0500

 }
 
========================


Notice it shows the "mdcreate(void)" function at the end of the "@@"
line.

I noticed, on the cvs site, that 1.12.13 is not in the stable tree.  You
might want to consider downgrading it to version 1.11.22 on Dragonfly,
which is the latest one I see in the stable branch.

Regards,
Vincent
