Sorry, the first answer slipped through my fingers.


Usually, patches under Unix are applied to an original file using the program
``patch'', which normally reads the diff file directly from standard input,
as in:

   patch <patchfile

You should consult the man-page of patch for specific features pertinent to
your machine and version of AIX.  Although I have---so far---never patched
anything, I am assured that there is a README for patching (if not part of the
old distribution of gnat 3.07, you might wish to look at a newer one).


Hope this helps!
