I am really sorry if this response comes off as high handed, that is
not my intention.
The  patch attached by Samuel Thibault is a diff of a diff.
The unmodified file is a file named debian/patches/01-conglomeration.patch.

I have worked on essentially breaking down the 01-conglomeration patch
into manageable chunks.

The only difference i see between the patch attached and the actual
patch 01-conglomeration.patch is given in my previous mail.

After applying the diff detailed in my previous mail, gpart does not
build because, a file in the source named gm_ntfs.h cannot find
asm/byteorder.h (I could not find it too, that may be because i have a
lot to learn).

So, further assistance would be appreciated.
