Patch also assumes that hunks with less prefix than suffix contect must match at the beginning of a file. I don't think this assumption is justified, especilly since no amount of fuzz will help. (We've been shipping a version of patch with this assumption removed in SUSE for over a year now.) This is a significant change though, so please speak up if you disagree!
