Ok. I am being stupid.

I applied the .debdiff you sent via patch ... < ... redirection. That gets me
a modified Makefile.am and two new debian/patches/ files.

But then the build command complains about Makefile.am, dpkg-source --commit
fails ("reversed patch") so I undo Makefile.am.

But then the build directory (I checked inside pbuilder) did not have it.

I am overcomplicating this.  What should I do?  For your debdiff, do I by
hand re-generate debian/patches/ ?
