If there are any patches there that you think we need in Emacs trunk,
and don't yet have, could you point them out? (Ideally, with a separate
bug report for each.) The patches don't seem to have clear descriptions
of what they do.

The configure.ac patches removes the test for ALSA altogether - why?
And adds some stuff related to processes (?), see below.

You don't need any of the patch-doc-*-Makefile.in any more,
since --no-split is the default since 24.3.

I guess
patch-src_coding.c == http://debbugs.gnu.org/8522 ?
If you've tested it and it works, it would be helpful to add that
comment in that report.

The src/lisp.h, lib/verify.h ones are redundant now that this report is
fixed?

The sources.el one is some packaging-specific thing?

The src/sysdep.c one is to do with list-system-processes, but Emacs 24
already has an implementation for FreeBSD, so I don't understand.
The src/process.c and part of the configure.ac patch are related to this?
