I found a little time to update patch-kernel if anyone wants
to use it. OTOH, using Matt Mackall's "ketchup" is OK too.

I also use 'kcurrent' to keep up with the latest kernel vesions
available -- as noted on www.kernel.org. It's also attached
and both scripts are available at
http://developer.osdl.org/rddunlap/scripts/

patch-kernel: support non-incremental 2.6.x.y 'stable' patches

# Add better support for (non-incremental) 2.6.x.y patches;
# If an ending version number if not specified, the script automatically
# increments the SUBLEVEL (x in 2.6.x.y) until no more patch files are found;
# however, EXTRAVERSION (y in 2.6.x.y) is never automatically incremented
# but must be specified fully.
#
# patch-kernel does not normally support reverse patching, but does so when
# applying EXTRAVERSION (x.y) patches, so that moving from 2.6.11.y to 2.6.11.z
# is easy and handled by the script (reverse 2.6.11.y and apply 2.6.11.z).
