Can you explain why this is needed? You can already apply patches on
any package using the BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR option. See
http://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#packages-custom for
details about it.

Basically, you can do:

	BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR=board/<company>/<project>/

and then, in:

	board/<company>/<project>/xenomai/

you put your patches, and then will be applied to Xenomai before it is
being built.

Best regards,

Thomas
