Is there a reason why we don't include GNU patch as a spkg, or it is just a matter of "nobody ever did it"?
For the pari spkg (remember #9343?), I actually automated the process of generating patched files from the patches in a file spkg-make. This was really needed, because there were like 10 patches or so and I was making a new spkg at least once per day...
