I have yet to see a patch reject that was created by patch(1) without
good reason.  There are sure to be conflicts of some sort in the patch.
If there are any conflicts at all, they need to be resolved by human
intervention -- there is no other way to be sure that the patch may be
applied without producing an incorrect result.
