Do you mean you had to apply your own patches to Mesa?

If so, just put those patches in Mesa3/patches and name them as
"patch-zz", "patcy-zy", etc.  cvsup won't touch them and they
shouldn't get overwritten unless someone does something dumb.

The patches need to be relative to the correct dirs.  I can never
remember quite which ones and usually end-up hand editing them until I
get it right.  ;-)
