Same with -current i386 and -current pkgsrc.

I 'patched' the patch as you suggested and it compiled correctly.

Seems no.

'make patch' apparently does not honour NO_CHECKSUM=yes ; even when I
updated the sha1 sum in the distfiles, it still would not play game
and refuse to use patch-ab; I had to manually patch the source (make
extract; make patch ; cd work/xml*; patch < ../../patches/patch-ab; cd
..; touch .patch_done ; cd ..; make )
