would it be acceptable to have arch, in the case of --forward split the patch 
in several patches for the same file, to work around this buggy behaviour?

an alternative could be to import patch into tla as library and do the 
necessary tweaks there - a libpatch might be necessary to significantly boost 
tla/win32's performance anyway.
