[CODE/PATCH] help with mobprog patch

From: Joshua Burley (jburley@falco.kuci.uci.edu)

ok, I've done many patches before, so I'm almost certain I'm applying it 
properly, but... I got the mobprog patch for circle3 from the ftp site, unzipped
it, then ran (in ~/circle/src of course) "patch < mobprogpatchfile".. and the
error I get everytime is:

jburley@pulse% patch < mobprog-3.0bpl11.patch                      ~/circle/src
Hmm...  Looks like a new-style context diff to me...
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|diff -acN ../oldsrc/Makefile ./Makefile
|*** ../oldsrc/Makefile Fri May 24 20:23:02 1996
|--- ./Makefile Fri May 24 20:01:32 1996
--------------------------
Patching file Makefile using Plan A...
Hunk #1 failed at 20.
patch: **** replacement text or line numbers mangled in hunk at line 24

and the patch file doesn't look corrupted, and I retried downloading it several
times. Anyone think they can help?
