I've put a slightly corrected version of the patch online at
http://home.tiscali.nl/rladan/freebsd/xtaf-r6-20061113.diff.bz2

-rw-r--r--  1 rene  rene  42171 13 nov 22:32 xtaf-r6-20061113.diff.bz2
MD5 (xtaf-r6-20061113.diff.bz2) = 6880eb31124eb7554e7a395b30f7745f

It cleans up some orphaned definitions and variables and it preserves
the access time of files (XTAF supports this, unlike some ancient FAT
versions).

Regards,
Rene
