Thanks, this is a known issue which has been addressed in the upcoming new version. Alpha versions are available here:

 ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/patch/

The release of the next version is delayed because I still want to fix bug http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?26099, which is somewhat nasty.

When trying to compile gnu patch 2.6.1 on Solaris 9 with Sun Studio 12 there are a couple of errors thrown due to missing files from gnulib, which seem to have been erranously ommitted in the packaging. After adding these files manually from the current gnulib compilation works fine. These files are:
- gl/lib/strnlen.c
- gl/m4/safe-read.m4
- gl/m4/strnlen.m4
