Could you re-do the patch as a "diff -c" or "diff -u" patch?  Without
the context information provided by 'diff -c" or "diff -u", the version
of "patch" we have installed here:

	hostname$ patch -v
	Patch version 2.0, patch level 12u8

somehow got confused and thought

	1) some line numbers in the change to "file.c" were different in
	   the current version (even though the version in my tree is
	   1.92, which is the version you diffed with), even though it
	   appears to have applied the patch correctly

and

	2) got *very* confused about "lanalyzer.c", complaining that
	   some parts of the patch failed, and finally giving up with a

patch: **** misordered hunks! output would be garbled

	   error.
