'lintpkgsrc' comparing checksums on like-named patches in different packages

["John D. Baker" <jdbaker%mylinuxisp.com@localhost>]

With the freeze for pkgsrc-2015Q3 imminent, I'm going ahead and starting
the update process now.  After updating to HEAD, I typically run
'lintpkgsrc' to clean out the old and fetch the new distfiles and such.

Something I've noticed during these runs is complaints about checksum
mismatches on package patch files where the comparison is between two
distinctly different packages:

checksum mismatch between 'SHA1' for 'patch-libstdc++-v3_config_os_bsd_netbsd_ctype__inline.h' in lang/gcc44 and lang/gcc34
checksum mismatch between 'SHA1' for 'patch-libstdc++-v3_config_os_bsd_netbsd_ctype__noninline.h' in lang/gcc44 and lang/gcc34
checksum mismatch between 'SHA1' for 'patch-libstdc++-v3_config_os_bsd_netbsd_ctype__inline.h' in lang/gcc45 and lang/gcc34

I'm baffled as to why these comparisons are made.  While the two packages
may each have a patch with the same name likely to address the same issue,
they are different packages, so there should never be a comparison in the
first place.

Or am I missing something?
