	Put the patch in your unpacked gnome-pilot directory, then run:

	cat gnome-pilot.patch | patch -p0

	You should see:

patching file configure.in
patching file capplet/gnome-pilot-cdialog.c
patching file capplet/gnome-pilot-conduitcap.c
patching file capplet/gpilotd-capplet-strings.c
patching file capplet/gpilotd-capplet.glade
patching file capplet/pilot.c
patching file capplet/pilot.h
patching file capplet/util.c
patching file capplet/util.h
patching file gpilotd/gpilotd.c
patching file utils/make-password.c
