I'm experiencing some strange problems with that patches. First,
my Netscape shows their sizes as approx. 200-300 k. But being downloaded,
they are 2-3 megs of size. Second, occasionally I had to download a
patch (6.5.1->6.5.2) twice, one immediately after another. They were
different! There was some strings of difference in the middle of
the patch. Maybe it was Netscape's quirks. Hope so. As to patches
themselves, they seem to be Ok, though I couldn't test them by
compiling source (my source tree is somehow slightly damaged), there
were no unreasonable hunk fails. I had to use -p1 option with the
patch to strip top-level dir which is called different on my system.

being put to test. If they were, they would be contaminated by reality.
