you don't need to patch the (guest) kernel when using 2.6.12. Just do a
bash$ wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.12.5.tar.bz2
bash$ tar -xjf linux-2.6.12.5.tar.bz2
bash$ cd linux-2.6.12.5
bash$ make menuconfig ARCH=um # or instead of menuconfig: xconfig or config
bash$ make linux ARCH=um
bash$ strip linux
# you need to make a rootfs and apply the according $OPTIONS
bash$ ./linux $OPTIONS
