Hi,

it seems your patch doesn't understand that patch file.

I had to modify it because otherwise it would contain an RCS Id and that would
not work either.

Could someone take a look and tell me what else should i have done to create
that patch file?

And no, mkpatches is no option:

Cannot strip away RCS IDs, please handle manually!
src/windiv.c.orig: src/windiv.c and src/windiv.c.orig don't differ
