No, the patch file applies to an unmodified GCC 2.7.2.  It is applied
to that base every night automatically.  Yes, some of the patches were
originally derived from different GCC version of GCC sources, so the
line numbers aren't exact, but those exact patches are applied to the
2.7.2 sources each night to do builds.
