[snip example]

Yup, that was it, patch went in crooked.

I tried applying the kdb and lkcd patches in different orders, and there's no one order that works cleanly.
Seems like there ought to be a combined lkcd/kdb patch since these two entities work so closely together, especially in light of the fact that the kdb readme contains an additional patch for lkcd.
Although, that's just one more thing to test that no-one ever has time for.

Thanks for your help.
