That patch is patching out CRs in syllables.txt, so if you stripped them
out of the entire tree earlier, apply with --ignore-space.  Or ignore
the reject.

The patch is correct.  I suspect your sources somehow got muddled.
p4 print //depot/perl/lib/ExtUtils/MM_Cygwin.pm@7641 doesn't show
the two lines that are being added by the patch, contrary to what
you said.  The last edit to MM_Cygwin.pm happened at change#5008
(i.e. before 5.6.0) and you'll note the 5.6.0 version of the file
doesn't have those lines either.

This appears to be the same issue as item 2 above.  The patch
is showing the right edit, and the deleted lines are there at
that rev, so I'm not sure how you're getting the problem.

This is due to the files being marked as binary, as you noted.
Not sure why they were marked as binary to begin with, since they
don't appear to have any "binary" bytes.  I've manually fixed up
the patch.
