Well, surely they do - we wouldn't know of them otherwise :-)

The FFE patch enables code to use the FPUTC intrinsic (in libU77); this
is the least important of the two, because the bug doesn't lead to
miscompiled, but running code.

The libf2c patch fixes reading of some NAMELISTs, which is of the form
"runs, but produces wrong results".
