You can apply the patches post_unpack or post_src_prepare witht hooks.
What's the problem?
autoreconf
Can you elaborate why this would be a problem?
hooks can only be run before/after phases. you can't control when
during a phase you might run eapply_user().
i see advantages to both eapply_user and using hooks. as the ebuild
writer, i may like to suggest patching at a certain point in the ebuild
and then could just absorb those patches as contributions, eg i may want
all patching done after some preliminary work in src_prepare() but
before eautoreconf. for other entry points, the user can use hooks.
