The patch seems to include the whole nonfree code, making it have the
same licensing issue as the original code.

Do we need snprintf in this package when glibc provides it?  Wouldn't
changing the package to fail build if the system has no snprintf and use
the OS-provided function be simpler?

If not, use "rm" to remove the old file and add the new one instead of
patching the nonfree one.
