You need to save the patch with Unix EOLs ("C-x RET c unix RET" before
invoking the Emacs command to save or apply the patch), and you need
to invoke patch.exe with the --binary switch.

Here's how I do it on Windows:

  . Mark the patch in the Emacs buffer

  . C-x RET c unix RET M-| patch -d /path/to/emacs -p0 --binary RET
