Is there a way to export/import these files as text?  If so, you can go that
route.

I apologize for the format of these patches.  I should've submitted one patch
per feature/bug fix, but instead, I submitted incremental patches.  Since they
are incremental, you'll have to install each patch up to and including the last
one you need.

The patch are both server and client side.  New options have to be since the
client will need to be able to specify the option, and the server will need to
understand it.

I apologize again for the messiness.  I know I keep saying this, but if I find
some time, I'll clean up the patches.
