Two things so far...
1. Before doing step two you'll have to "mkdir /usr/src/yellowdog"
since it appears the rpm -ivh command will not create that directory
automagically

2. patching doesn't seem to work for me. I'm now going to see if what
wasn't patched and do it manually (or see if, for some reason, the
code I have has actually been patched).

Eric.

PS This is the output of the patching effort...
