It's unlikely that someone would make a change like that without a reason. Looking at the git history for the patchfiles leads to ticket #1987, which says "The code had to be patched a bit to get around OS X adopting init_process as a system library function". It looks like that function declaration is no longer present on 64-bit systems. Continuing to rename the function in frotz won't do any harm and may allow it to continue to build on old systems. - Josh
