No problem. I find %autosetup so handy that usually if I need to use a
patch from somewhere else that's at a different prefix level, I just
hand-edit that patch to be at level 1 so I can keep using it...
Definitely agree with rewriting the patch to fit %autosetup. It also
reminds me to resubmit the patch upstream whenever I find patches that
old :)
