Here it is:

You need the gnuwin32 patch.exe in your path. Then do

  emacs -Q

Open the file the-patch.diff. Create a new buffer with C-x b. Insert the 
file file-to-patch.txt in this.

Then from the menus select Tools - Apply patch - To a Buffer ...

Choose the patch and buffer to patch from above. After this Emacs 
freezes, at least for me (CVS from 070306).


This is the buffer to patch on the next line:
Change this line.
End of buffer to patch.
