cmc->hjs/rene:
How about this implementation to allow multiple patches, seems to work for me.

I'd prefer multiple patches for the externals because we have no idea looking at
our existing patches what the hell they're really for as we've bundled into a
single patch the fixes for build problems, warning as errors and enhancements.

It would be *way* more preferable to have them split up, at least new ones, into
one per purpose. Ideally even with an upstream bugzilla id in the patch name
where it was submitted back to those probjects for a warning fix or the
enhancement added by OOo. 

For example the rhino patch is horrific. Part of it I've unpicked to figure out
that it merely updates it to the next patch level or two of rhino, while the
other part is the substantive customization for OOo while the next part is just
to add a makefile.mk to build it with dmake and the final part is to add in
those otherly-authored java files from the original Sun tutorial on extending 
rhino.

As part of the solenv suggestion attached here is a gendiff.sh diff maker which
follows the same pattern that we use in fedora to help the auto patch making
process.
