Apply patches in /etc/portage/patches/ during the prepare phase. The inner
719
directory structure follows atom syntax in ebuild(5). Filenames ending
720
in .diff and .patch found in all matching subdirectories are combined into a
721
list of the patch basenames. Those in more-specific subdirectories override
722
patches of the same basename found in less-specific subdirectories. An empty
723
patch (or /dev/null symlink) negates a patch with the same basename found in
724
a less-specific subdirectory. In order, from most to least specific, these
725
subdirectories will be matched to the current ebuild:

For the first two forms, ${P}-r0 also matches and overrides ${P}, if the ebuild
740
has no revision number. This feature is enabled by default.
