--- Comment #5 from Julian Elischer <julian at FreeBSD.org> ---
I need to merge in some stuff from freebsd ports this week, so if you are going
to replace my version with another, it would be a good time for me to take it
in and reduce the number of diffs I have to carry.

I am also considering a way to generate new local diffs in terms of a ports
target

1  first apply standard diffs  (make patch)
2  make patch-snapshot
3  apply local diffs by hand
4  make local-patches
5  make remove-snapshot

patch-snapshot would copy the whole patch directory to one side in unpackacked
and patched form. make local-patches would diff them
