Assuming you have the dor patch and a working patch program:

	$ cd your-Test-Smoke-dir
	$ ./configsmoke.pl -c smoke58x

Up to this bit
Found [/usr/bin/patch]
What file is used for specifying patches (leave empty for none)?
        Please read the documentation.
[/home/abeltje/bleadperl/patches/perl58x.inc] $

enter a filename (like perl58x.inc above) and finish the configuration.

fire up your favorite editor with that file and add a line like the one below 
specifying the path to the dor-patch and extra options for patch:

# Put one filename of a patch on a line, optional args for patch
# follow the filename separated by a semi-colon (;) [-p1] is default
# /path/to/patchfile.patch;-p0 -R
# Empty lines and lines starting with '#' are ignored
# File paths are relative to '/home/abeltje/bleadperl/perl-5.8.x' 
# if not absolute
/home/abeltje/bleadperl/patches/dor-5.8.3-rx1.diff;-b


now start the smoke (use '--nosmartsmoke' if you've already smoked this 
patch-level):

    $ ./smoke58x.sh --nosmartsmoke

This will automatically apply the patches mentioned in the 'perl58x.inc' file 
right after the rsync.


Good luck,

Abe

sprintf is certainly 'cleverer' but 'clever' is not equivalent with
'good'...
