The version of pre-patch-2.3.15-3.bz2 I downloaded was 984877
bytes.
[root@sparrow src]# cat kpatches-23/pre-patch-2.3.15-3 | grep -A 2 ^diff |

Now I go back to an ftp.bz2.us.kernel.org and download it again;
the new one is 972683 bytes. The new patch makes some additional changes
to filemap.c that appear to remove the error variable and removes the
filemap.c.orig file entirely.
Problem solved, I suspect. Sorry to take up everyone's time.
Cheers,
- Bill
