Note that you only need this on the first file (prnt/cupsext/cupsext.c). The problem is that this file has CRLF line endings while the other file in the patch has LF line endings. So if you just use epatch (converts CRLF to LF) it'll fail on the first file, if you use epatch --binary (won't convert) it'll fail on the second file.
