Anyone making build scripts or just wants to save time by using cat to merge the patches into one file, or simply pipe the output directly to patch will be unable to do so, and they'll have to manually run patch for each patchfile with the 'diff' headers.  It just seems needlessly inconsistent.  Altering the headers to all use "=== modified file" headers will not break anyone's scripts etc., as far as I know.

The yosemite one is obvious, magnify event is for El Capitan, not sure about the retina patch or dataview patch.  I think we should mention them in the documentation though, rather than expecting someone trying to build kicad to discover them on their own.
