I don't know what version of dpatch you're using, but that's not the
case here. For example, from the alsaplayer Debian package source:
---------- BEGIN -----------
#! /bin/sh /usr/share/dpatch/dpatch-run
## 02_http_header.dpatch by Paul Brossier <piem@debian.org>
##
## All lines beginning with `## DP:' are a description of the patch.
## DP: Add a missing space after colon in HTTP header.

Generally, you can build a dpatch source by just taking a regular patch,
and adding a header (like above) to it.
Then you just create a 00list file, which lists all the patches in order
(without the .dpatch extension).
