No, it is not that. the diff should look like it deletes a chunk of lines 
around 930 and adds a similar chunk around line 590, spanning a few lines which 
includes LINUX_VERSION_CODE/V4L2_VERSION .

There shouldn't be any need for guess work - the regular tar ball snapshot is 
set up by some person, so there should be an authoritative answer...

By the way, I was doing a bit of travelling in the last few days - and got 
fairly good reception with just the small 5-in aerial in two places; on the 5th 
floor of a hotel in Brighton (a coastal city in south UK) and the 4th floor by 
a correct-facing window (same building one floor below interior was crap) 
local. So it seems that the high you go in UK (or in SE UK), the better. That 
probably explains why it is so bad in my place - mid-way between two 
transmitters, and also on the ground floor just outside floodable distance from 
the local river (i.e. as low in altitude as one can get...).
