I like this idea!
I don't have comments scepecifically about these 
patches, but in general we could also write re-useable recipes for 
patching, like little patch scripts that take arguments.
By now I have my cookbook of darwin8 and gcc-4.0 fixes/workarounds in my 
head -- this would be a great way to record them.
