[Mimedefang] URGENT: Apply the MIME-Tools patch NOW.

When trying to install the patch on a HPUX 11 system the patch command
gives the following message:

# patch -p1 < /tmp/mime-tools-patch.txt
Hmm...  I can't seem to find a patch in there anywhere.

Not having used patch before I don't really know what to look for
to fix this.

I dowloaded the patch with mimedefang 2.8 and it appears to be ok.

Any ideas.
