Local patches are always possible to avoid. Avoiding them serves two
purposes: 1) the patch author is not outsourcing the maintenance of
their laziness to someone else down the line 2) if you trust NetBSD,
you trust src-netbsd since you can get a binary result from a diff.
Sure, the rule isn't always convenient short-term, but everyone
looking for short-term convenience can do it on their own forks. Who
knows, maybe those forks will be popular, given the apparent appeal of
doing something in 10min and then spending 1min per week, as opposed
to spending 12min and then 1min per year.
