Thanks guys.
Yes, I'm familiar with the power of sed, but I use it so infrequently
that the time taken to craft a working syntax would have been longer
than the "replace? Y/N" procedure. Those who can handle regex with such
ease have my deepest respect.

I edited the patch file to change the "\" to "/" in the filenames.
Unfortunately I couldn't do a global search and replace as there are
other "\"s that are valid.

sed '/^diff/s/\\/\//g'
And why do you think this will leave cases like "...\n" untouched?
Did you read Ben's post?
Well, seeing as you asked so nicely, it only performs the
substitutions on lines beginning with "diff."
I concede that it's incomplete. It should probably be (assuming GNU
sed):
sed -r '/^((---)|(\+\+\+)|(diff))/s/\\/\//g'
