So you renamed patch-configure to patch-configure.diff (which fixes  
the lint warning, so thanks) and then made additional changes to the  
file... it would have been better to use "svn mv patch-configure  
patch-configure.diff" to rename the file, and then make the changes  
to patch-configure.diff, and then commit, in order to preserve the  
file's history. As it is now, patch-configure.diff springs into  
existence at revision 34521, which is misleading because in fact the  
patch originally appeared in r778, and someone looking at the  
patchfile today might well want to know when and why it was  
originally added.
