I'm trying to track down why, but applying your old patch to an anonymous 
checkout of svn 15566 (which the patch seems to say it applies against) 
produced lots of failures.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

svn co svn://busybox.net/trunk/busybox -r 15566
cd busybox
patch -p0 -i ../bb.argc.00g.diff

Wrong version?
