Wouldn't you like this patch to apply? Why not support bzip2'ed patch
files as well as distfiles? :)
Those who are distributing tarballs in bzip2 format would be likely to
distribute diffs also in bzip2 format. In such cases, bzip2 will be
installed anyway; there should be nothing but a less disk/bandwidth
usage merit.
You know, bzip2 is good at text files, that patch files always are. :)
