The problem is that my build directory is:

 /data/oe/build/titan-glibc-24

and I have a directory called:

 /data/oe/patches

It appears that quilt searches throught he path for a directory
called "patches" and uses that for all it's patches. So the patches
are being stored in my /data/oe/patches directory instead of in the
package itself.

The patch command used to mkdir the patches directory, but this is no
longer happening. The following patch appears to make things work
again - does this look correct to people who understand this patch
class?
