Most of the FreeBSD ports patches are relatively easy to justify and
explain.  For example, FreeBSD port system defines SDL_CONFIG in a way
that's overridable.  There's a patch that looks like:

Index: qemu/configure
@@ -204,7 +204,7 @@
 
 if test -z "$sdl" ; then
 
-sdl_config="sdl-config"
+sdl_config="${SDL_CONFIG}"
 sdl=no
 sdl_static=no
 
which is straight forward enought, but still wrong...  It should be:

Index: qemu/configure
@@ -204,7 +204,7 @@
 
 if test -z "$sdl" ; then
 
-sdl_config="sdl-config"
+sdl_config="${SDL_CONFIG:-sdl-config}"
 sdl=no
 sdl_static=no
 
to still work on non-FreeBSD systems or on FreeBSD systems not using
the ports....

There's a lot of niggles like this, however...
