It is directly against CVS head.

cd /usr/local/pcb-src/pcb-cvs

Or perhaps make a copy to apply the patch onto, but make sure you are in
that directory, then:

patch -p0 --dry-run < pcb_faster_gl.diff

If it works, take out the --dry-run and repeat.

There are configure.ac changes in the patch, so you will need to
re-run ./autogen.sh before ./configure, and you will also need to
install "gtkglext" before you do.
