Issue with patching from bash-4.3-patches

[Matthew Gessner]

I apologize, but I somehow sent this from gmail prematurely.
I am having issues with patch working properly with the patches in
bash-4.3-patches.
Admittedly, I don't use patch very often, but having asked on freenode
##bash and others telling me they are not having issues, they suggested I
post this here.

I've seen similar issues using patch 2.7.1 and patch 2.6.

My two directories are bash-4.3 and bash-4.3-patches.

>From inside bash-4.3 and using patch 2.7.1 I do:
   # patch -p0 < ../bash-4.3-patches/bash43-001

And I get back
   Ignoring potentially dangerous file name ../bash-4.3/test.c
   patching file test.c
   Ignoring potentially dangerous file name ../bash-4.3/patchlevel.h
   patching file patchlevel.h

With patch 2.6, I get similar errors, and then a request for "File to
patch: "
