scripts/patch-kernel was itself patched at 1.3.69, alas it's wrong. I've
mailed a patch to the maintainer, in the meantime edit scripts/patch-kernel,
replace
if (gunzip -dc $patchdir/$patch | grep -v '^\\' | patch -p1 -s -E -d $sourcedir)
with
if ! (gunzip -dc $patchdir/$patch | grep -v '^\\' | patch -p1 -s -E -d $sourcedir)
