[theora-dev] Boring but useful VP3/QT patches

ok -- the .dsw patch was easy.  I'm having a problem with the cvs patch,
which may simply reflect on my ignorance of the proper use of the
Cygwin/GNU toolset.

I am attempting to run patch as follows:

patch -d vp32 <vp32-cvs-ignore-patch.diff

and get output like this:

The next patch would create the file `.cvsignore',
which already exists!  Assume -R? [n]
Apply anyway? [n]
Skipping patch.

<p>It looks to me like patch is trying to put each .cvsignore in the vp32
directory rather than the specified subdirectories such as
Codecs/quicktime/.

It seems like I need some option to get patch to use the 'Index:'
commands.  I looked at the man page, it goes on about how patch tries to
derive the filenames, but I am still confused.  Any help would be
appreciated.
