That is with git-2.6.3.
Interestingly, using 'xzcat | patch -p1' seems to apply fine, or at least it doesn't seem to report any errors, and I have no particular interest in ft1000 so I'll go with that.
It boots ok on this machine (AMD K10, with my current config), but that doesn't say a lot, so I'll shut up.
