Yes, that is what I meant by eating my dog food (again).  I would never
post a patch without actually trying it myself first.  Note that instead
of cutting and pasting, I saved the attachments (i.e., patches) as files.

As I stated in my initial post, rcs-5.7-cygwin-1.patch is identical to
rcs-5.7-cygwinb20.patchb.  You should only apply one or the other.  I
just included rcs-5.7-cygwinb20.patchb renamed to rcs-5.7-cygwin-1.patch
so people wouldn't have to go looking for it.

How exactly are you invoking patch?
