Bug#402737: patch: append to .rej files instead of overwriting them (fwd)

[Christoph Berg]

Hi,

here's another bug from a Debian user: if you have several patches in
a single file that touch the same file, rejects from the different
patches will overwrite each other. I think patch should concatenate
them.

Please Cc: address@hidden for replies.
