Hi,

somethimes it is required to have more than one patchfiles to apply. For example
when there is some patch you need in one case but not in another and you don't
want to clobber the original patch.

Example just happening in cws_srx645_mozooo. If you build with system freetype
(or build moz outside the normal flow and you automatically use system freetype)
you get a build failure with freetype 2.1.8. There's a patch to fix that; it
would apply to both existing patches but I a) don't want to clobber them with
that and b) don't duplicate them but just put it in one patch to be applied in
certain conditions instead of appending it to each of them...

Regards,

Rene
