I don't know about anyone else on this list, but I'm having
trouble figuring out precisely what you're having problems
with.  It sounds like you're suggesting that the 'patch' 
utility is not working for you the way you would like, but
I'm really not too sure even of that.  If you have not already,
please read:

>Problem reports:       http://cygwin.com/problems.html


Then please follow-up this posting with one that describes 
the behavior you see and the behavior you want, as well as
all the other requested information this page prescribes.  
The more details, the better.  Examples are good too. ;-)
