Um.. when it says 'file to patch', it means it wants the name of a file
to apply the patch /to/, not the file to read the patch /from/.  There
are some requirements about relative paths in the diff file that I
entirely glossed over when I mentioned adding patches to the files
directory; unfortunately not all patches will 'just work' (tm).

[[ Do this next bit after unpacking the distfiles but before building
the port.  ie. after running these commands:

  # cd /usr/ports/x11-wm/dwm
  # make clean ; make extract

]]

Or after 'make patch', so the port patches have already been applied. Of course, port patches and manual patches can interfere with each other.
