Did you play around with WRKSRC or PATCH_WRKSRC? I tried to reproduce the
problem with the simplest patch:

--- src/ccmalloc.in.orig        Sat Apr  5 15:34:27 2003

...but it just applied without complaining:

===>  Applying FreeBSD patches for ccmalloc-0.4.0

For debugging you can try "make -n patch" first. If the reason is not still
clean I usually use something like "make -n patch | sh -x"
