FWIW, I managed to apply them, but mainly because our internal MS 
Exchange server (which often messes up patches) is down, so I'm having 
to deliver the mail to a "proper" mail server. :)

(Also, the patches in the driverdev-devel archive don't apply as-is, 
partly because it replaces '@' with ' at ', and partly because it 
replaces the ezsett character in 'Dieselstraße' with a question mark '?'.)
