If you are trying to patch the ebuild itself:

Download the patch file
cd to the directory containing the ewbuild
patch -p0 <patchfile

man patch explains this. When you modifiy an ebuild you have to generate
new digests; either "ebuild foo.ebuild digest" or use the --digest option
when emerging it. The latter is not advised when emerge is also installing
dependencies.
