As for m4 and the rest of gnu utils needed by gentoo (epatch doesn't work with bsd/posix patch), the attached patch makes patch install as gpatch and is symlinked to patch for GNU-userland systems.

Thanks again,
Diego

ive updated patch so it'll install as gpatch on non-GNU systems ...

i realized with the other GNU apps that if calling it 'gblah' is standard, then have all systems install like that ... but if it isnt common (like gm4 or gpatch), then only do it on non-GNU systems
