That comes from how FreeBSD-patch(GNU one?) and OpenBSD-patch(what we have)
treat the "Index:" line. The failing patch is files/patch-tools.
The beginning of the patch looks like this:

  Index: tools/makedep.c
  ===================================================================
  RCS file: /home/wine/wine/tools/makedep.c,v
  retrieving revision 1.17
  diff -u -3 -p -r1.17 makedep.c
  --- makedep.c	20 Jun 2003 21:31:13 -0000	1.17
  +++ makedep.c	23 Feb 2004 22:36:23 -0000
  @@ -67,7 +67,8 @@ static const char Usage[] =
       "   -Idir   Search for include files in directory 'dir'\n"
       "   -Cdir   Search for source files in directory 'dir'\n"

The "Index:" line says the patch should be applied to tools/makedep.c,
and "---" or "+++" line says the file exists in the cwd. The FreeBSD-patch
honors the "Index:" line and tries to patch tools/makedep.c, but our patch
tries to patch the latter and fails, unless an environment variable
POSIXLY_CORRECT is set or "--posix" option is given. So an easy workaround
for now is to do something like this:
# make PATCH='patch --posix'
(yeah, you can probably set POSIXLY_CORRECT, but it might have more
side-effect than we expect).
