Patch is wrong. :-)  Sorry.
>From the script you're working with:

>mkdir gcc src combined
       ^^^ ^^^
Note that line.

>cd gcc
>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/gcc login
># You will be prompted for a password; reply with the empty string.
>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/gcc co gcc
And this creates 'gcc' inside the 'gcc' directory.

>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/gcc logout
>cd ../src
>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/src login
># You will be prompted for a password; reply with "anoncvs".
>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/src co binutils newlib 
>dejagnu gdb
And this creates 'src' inside the 'src' directory.

>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/src logout
>cd src
>find . -print | cpio -pdlm ../../combined
>cd ../../gcc/gcc
>find . -print | cpio -pdlmu ../../combined
>cd ../..

The script ends up with the setup
/gcc/gcc
/src/src
/combined

Your patch will make it fail.

I assume what you wanted to do was to end up with
/gcc
/src
/combined

To do that you need to replace the script with:

>mkdir combined
Note that line.

>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/gcc login
># You will be prompted for a password; reply with the empty string.
>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/gcc co gcc
This creates 'gcc' at 'top level'.

>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/gcc logout

>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/src login
># You will be prompted for a password; reply with "anoncvs".
>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/src co binutils newlib 
>dejagnu gdb
This creates 'src' at top level.

>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/src logout

And then the following will work.
>cd src && find . -print | cpio -pdlm ../combined && cd ..
>cd gcc && find . -print | cpio -pdlmu ../combined && cd ..
