I have a patch for shlex...
I have a patch for shlex. There has been a lot of discussion of patch
management consequent to the SourceForge relocation here that I haven't
followed closely. So what's the current protocol for submitting a patch?

(The patch gives input sourcing cpp-like semantics for relative paths,
rather than making all inclusions relative to the current working directory.
Since the source feature has not yet been in a public production release,
there are no backwards-compatibility issues.)

the patch manager is your friend:

http://sourceforge.net/patch/?func=addpatch&group_id=5470

bonus points if the summary mentions the module or subsystem
name, and you describe/motivate the change either in a comment
on the patch details page, or at the top of the patch itself.
