Question is, should we change patch(1) to do that?

As mentioned, creating patches with the default 9fs sort of works,
except that all the chmods fail and the patch is owned by none.  I
think having a 9fs sourcesauth that we could use either as convenience
for people with contrib dirs and for things like patch(1) might make
sense.  If no one disagrees I will send the patch to do that.
