I think your asking how to patch the source code from the previous version to 
the latest version. Here's how I do it (similar process for the kernel):

1. download the patch file (0.55.2-0.56.1.diff.bz2)
2. save it to the directory where you xmame source code is
3. you should have the FULL xmame source code up to 0.55.2 in this case
4. make sure the source code directory is named "xmame-0.55.2"
5. Here's my directory listing before the patch:
-rw-r--r--    1 scott    scott      275477 Nov 22 23:46 0.55.2-0.56.1.diff.bz2
drwxr-xr-x    4 scott    scott        4096 Oct  6 18:59 xmame-0.55.2
6. run this: "bzip2 -dc 0.55.2-0.56.1.diff.bz2 | patch -p0"
7. now rename: "mv xmame-0.55.2 xmame-0.56.1"

Hope that helps,
Scott
