I'm considering using cygport for the next release of bash.  However, I
can't seem to figure out how to make it do what I want:

bash ships as a primary tarball (3.1), then has several official patch
files on top of the tarball (bash31-001 through bash31-017), so that bash
3.1.17 is the combination of these.  I know that I can add the patch files
to the SRC_URI in my .cygport file, but how do I apply those patches to
the original tree, so that the diff between my cygwin modifications and
the original tree won't repeat the diffs of the official patch files?  It
would be nice if there were a user-overridable hook called at the end of
src_prep function that I could provide in my .cygport to merge the
upstream patches into the original tree.
