Unfortunately, it replaces every single line in the file, as the new
file has CR-LF at the end of the line and the file in CVS doesn't - and
even if I remove all the CR's from the file, the patch fails.

I ended up taking the "to" lines from the patch, removing the leading
"> " and trailing CR's, and saving that to "packet-cops.c", and checking
that in.

If you're using CVS on Windows, you might want to see whether you can
configure it to handle files in CVS that don't have CR-LF by stripping
CR's when checking in and either adding them to files checked out
(including for diffing) or removing them from files being diffed.
