Just out of curiosity, why replace patchfiles with reinplace calls? I  
find patchfiles to be nicer because they give context on what's being  
changed (line numbers and a few lines before and after). If the  
source changes in a future version and a patch no longer applies, you  
can compare the source and the patch and usually get some idea of how  
the patch needs to be changed to apply again. Plus until we commit  
the patch in #15514 and release a new version of MacPorts, you won't  
get any warning if a reinplace fails.

If you really do want to use reinplace instead, then you should  
remove the patchfiles too.
