Yeah, I used quilt because I thought it was the preferred tool, after
the long discussion on d-devel:

The quilt experts are, ehm, AFAIK only me.

We can remove quilt and thus go back to dpatch (which I would consider a
regression, but I do not care a lot), but I would disagree if we direct
patch the sources (i.e. without dpatch/quilt/$WHATEVER), because in this
case we will loose the patch tracking support:

  http://patch-tracking.debian.net/package/clisp/

Since I use CLISP everyday with StumpWM, I can fully take care of it, if
needed.

Thx, bye,
