While debugging libva-intel-driver, I applied the rendering patch via the PKGBUILD only to find later that it wasn't actually applied. Makepkg didn't stop building the package even though it failed to apply the patch.
Nothing wrong with that snippet; the problem lies somewhere else. Did you actually watch the patch fail and makepkg continue? Are you sure the package you have installed came from this PKGBUILD?
I rebuilt and installed the package from the PKGBUILD (makepkg -s -r -i) multiple times. After finding that nothing was working, I grew suspicious and examined the src folder of the PKGBUILD to find that the source was not patched. Incidentally the correct code was "patch -p1 -i" not "patch -Np1 -i".

Salutations,
Scratch that, I just checked my records and I used a lower cased "n" instead of "N". I just tried it with "patch -Np1 -i" and it works, but "patch -np1 -i" doesn't.

Yeah, with that option patch would interpret a unified diff as a no-op.
