The patch files are undecided unix, the ELisp file to patch is  
incorrectly set up:

        ;;; tramp.el --- Transparent Remote Access, Multiple Protocol
        ;;; -*- mode: Emacs-Lisp; coding: utf-8; -*-

So it's ISO Latin-1: iso-latin-1-unix. (I'll write another bug report  
on this.)

There are two major products that come out of Berkeley: LSD and UNIX.  
We don't believe this to be a coincidence.
