Why, there are other patch formats than unidiff ?

Actually, it's the definitely preferred way. I forgot to add the -u in the 
mail in February. Oh, I guess I ought to put that mail (after corrections) 
on the web site. Will do that together with the explanation of the DCD.

So, to correct what I said back in February:

        cvs -z3 diff -uN 2>/tmp/diff.log |gzip >/tmp/some.patch.gz
