Well, since those patches are mostly mine, I can answer this one: There are versions of GCC (at least 2.7.x) that invoke AS with an extra argument of "-" in the following case: gcc -pipe file.s This is a problem in "configure", where I used to add a "< /dev/null" to the compilation commands in two places. These patches had to be modified with each new release of Wine, so I looked for a more generic way that is what patch-ar provides ... Please keep patch-ar since "configure" will hang indefinitely if invoked interactively on at least some of the still supported versions of FreeBSD. (Batch building Wine works without this patch, since e.g. "nohup" does the equivalent of the patch and provides "/dev/null" as STDIN.)
