The following may not help, but it does suggest that the patch
itself is OK.
I saved the attachment to my home directory, then cd'd to my vim
source directory, the one containing the .hg directory, and executed
patch like this.
$ patch -p1 --dry-run < ~/autotextobject.diff
patching file runtime/doc/motion.txt
patching file runtime/doc/options.txt
patching file runtime/doc/tags
Hunk #3 succeeded at 7793 (offset -2 lines).
patching file src/normal.c
Hunk #1 succeeded at 9308 (offset -7 lines).
patching file src/option.c
Hunk #1 succeeded at 554 (offset -1 lines).
patching file src/option.h
That directory has the source for Vim 7.4.41. I didn't notice which
version the patch applied to, but a different version would explain
the offsets.
Here is the patch version info.
$ patch -v
patch 2.6
