Duh... All you need is the core package (diff #1), the architecture
independent modifications package (diff #2) and finally diff #3 that
adds the arch-specific stuff. Everything's in a single list on sf.

then just do s/t like
cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.19-pre8 && zcat \
	../kbuild-2.5-core-14.gz \
	../kbuild-2.5-common-2.4.19-pre8-1.gz \
	../kbuild-2.5-i386-2.4.19-pre8-1.gz \
	| patch -sp1

and read the comprehensive manual in Documentation/kbuild/

What's there to be nervous about?
