I have exactly the same system.  Untar gcc, untar GNAT, mv the
gnat*/ada/ directory to under the gcc-2.7.2.1 directory, cd into the
gcc directory and apply the gcc-272 patch ("patch -p0 <...>").  The
linux patch is *not* required at all.  Then follow the instructions in
gcc*/INSTALL.

Bottom line: just don't bother using the linux diff.  Also, what
version of GNAT do you have already installed?  If it's too old,
compilation will bomb ...
