I'll check for this but first time I hear about that. The problem is
not easy, because patch is not alone. Diff files are usually produced
by redirection on the command line, which means text mode diff files
(unless a patched diff !). Text mode diff files with binary files to
be patched usually does not mix happily.

^^^^^^^^^
does not seem to work that way. But a perl script could do it yes.
