I also asked this awhile back, the only way to get it to work is to
hack it, its quite dirty. Open up the apply script in an editor and
look for the following section:

APPLIED_PATCHES=""
bugger=
for i in $PATCH_DIR/[0-9]* ; do
        name=${i##$PATCH_DIR/}

        echo "Applying $name ..."
        apply_patch $i
        ret=$?
        if [ $ret -eq 10 ] ; then
                prompt_yes "$name will not apply cleanly. Reverse
applied patches" || exit 1
                bugger=1
                break
        elif [ $ret -eq 20 ] ; then
                echo "Eeep! Patch $name was supposed to apply cleanly
but didn't!"
                echo "Stopping right now. The patches that did
successfully apply were:"
                for i in $APPLIED_PATCHES ; do echo $i ; done
                exit 2
        fi
        APPLIED_PATCHES="$name $APPLIED_PATCHES"
done

If you look at your if statements they should be 1 and 2 change them
to 10 and 20. It will than apply all the patches to the kernel. Than
make menucconfig and continue.

I cant remember who told me about this but thanks to who ever it was.

Hope it helps 
Cheers
Rav
