I tried to apply this on a cnews directory that had only the generic patched sources (i.e. it had never been configured or built). I looked at the patches and they were simple enough to apply by hand but I found no reason for them to fail. The lines were in all the right places and read as they should and I'm at the correct patchlevel etc. I'm running patch at patchlevel 12 which I believe is the most recent release. Could that sed script in anne.jones have thrown it off? Even if it did that still wouldn't explain why relaynews.c failed.
