FIXME: Go into more depth about the -p0 option...
The <parameter>-p0</parameter> option to <command>patch</command>
tells it to keep the full file name from the patch file. For example,
if the file name in the patch file was
<filename>wine/programs/clock/main.c</filename>.
Setting the <parameter>-p0</parameter> option would apply the patch
to the file of the same name i.e.
<filename>wine/programs/clock/main.c </filename>.
Setting the <parameter>-p1</parameter> option would strip off the
first part of the file name and apply
the patch instead to <filename>programs/clock/main.c </filename>.
The <parameter>-p1</parameter> option would be useful if you named
your top level wine directory differently to the person who sent you
the patch. For the <parameter>-p1</parameter> option
<command>patch</command> should be run from the top level wine directory.
