s/shell/modification time order/

There's a find that locates the patches. The order returned by find
is what is returned used to generate an auto-scc file that is then
used to merge with the rest of the infrastructure.

I did a couple of minor changes here, sorting the patch location,
and support for directories of patches. But there's only so far
that I'm going to go for now.

What I'm trying to implement is a mode that the core patch class
will simply dump me a list of patches, that way I don't duplicate any
code, but can feed that into the scripts. I'm not there yet, but am
still working on it, since we can work around this for now, I'll try
and get this right before pushing out any changes.

Cheers,

Bruce
