I can't seem to get this patch to apply, but I'll fix it up by hand. (I also
redid the wordrapping a bit while I was there.)
The standard way to create patches is to have two busybox directories (a new
busybox directory and an old busybox directory) in the same parent directory,
with the same files underneath each one. Then do the diff while sitting in
that shared parent directory. That way all we have to do to apply your patch
is cd into our directory and use "patch -p1", and the logic works. In your
patch, one of the files is called "Config.in.orig" and the other is
"Config.in" and it doesn't know which filename to operate on...

(P.S. I hath installed subversion, source control system of source control
systems. Look on my work, ye mighty, and panic. Then try to at least point
out some of the more obvious mistakes, because I have NO IDEA what I'm doing
with this thing...)
And lo, its datedness hath been upped. That's what it says, anyway...
