darnit, both `-f' and `-t' work. Sigh. I blame the manpage: too long ;)
Incidentally, the offending patch
(http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/git-scsi-misc.patch) sends patch(1) into
an infinite loop with `patch -p1 -f' and `patch -p1 -t'. Presumably
it will do the same when that patch is offered to quilt...
