trouble compiling bind 9.9.2-P2 with rate limit patch rl-9.9.2-P2.patch

[Red Cricket]

Ah I think that is what I was doing wrong.  I some how got the idea in my
head that the patch needed to be applied after configure because I was
getting "Patch which file:" prompts when I would run patch ... and that was
actually being caused because I (or rpmbuild) was in the wrong directory
when that patch command was issued.
