Seeing the errro messages, I think that the problem is with the unzip of
the original source. The source uses "dos" line terminations (the "CR"
and "LF" characters ath end of line), so my patch also uses them.

One solution is to 'fix' the original sources and the patch to use only
"LF" line ends (the unix standard). You can use the following comand:
  perl -pi -e 's/^M$//' myFiles

To type "^M", you first press "CONTROL"+"V", and then "CONTROL"+"M".

Seems that your gcc version don't know that switch. You can simply
edit the "Makefile" and change:
   CFLAGS = -Wall -O2 -Wno-pointer-sign
into:
   CFLAGS = -Wall -O2
