Hi John.  What this looks like is that your patch got mangled by email
or some other transport that stripped leading spaces off the lines in
the patch.  Patches created from a "unified diff" will have a leading
space on all lines except those being directly patched.  This will
typically be 2 or 3 lines on either side of the lines of interest -- in
your case the lines beginning with -LIBS and +#LIBS.  The other lines
should begin " echo $ac_n", " else", " ac_save", " cat", and " #line".

You should probably try to download whatever patch this is via some
other mechanism.

                        -=- D. J.
