zlib patch doesn't take?

[David Wuertele <dave-gnus@bfnet.com>]

I'm trying to patch my already heavily-patched linux-2.4.18 to use the
mtd snapshot from what looks like May.  After running

  ./patchin.sh -j -c /home/build/linux

and starting a kernel compile (using gcc-3.3) I get the following
error.  Any suggestions?
