Which is no wonder, because patch misplaced more files:
root at kg-v2# pwd
/usr/src
root at kg-v2# ll *.c *c.orig *.h *h.orig
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   1650 Jan  7 01:09 drm_internal.h
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel      0 Jan  7 01:09 drm_internal.h.orig
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  16455 Jan  7 01:09 i915_suspend.c
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel      0 Jan  7 01:09 i915_suspend.c.orig
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  59118 Jan  7 01:09 radeon_microcode.h
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel      0 Jan  7 01:09 radeon_microcode.h.orig

Is ther a "secret handshake" to make patch put the files in their
correct place? (Except for reading through the whole patchfile to
determine if all touched filews are in the same directory.)

For now I just mv'ed the files into place.
Anyway, now the new kernel builds, installs and works correctly.
It didn't pick up any drm, but I'm not sure that it should either. This
machine[1] has a GeForce 8200 chipset. More info about FreeBSD on this
machine here[2], including dmesgs before and after, etc.
