Note this is not necessary if you attach the patch.
I always attach my patches, and it comes out fine,
without any special tweaking. I'm running Mozilla 1.7
on Mac OSX. Usually the patches are generated on GNU/Linux,
and copied over; sometimes they're generated natively.
Either way I seem to get the "right thing" without any
special configuration. For example:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2004-06/msg01910.html
contains an attachment - though the archive doesn't
indicate that.
