If there's any (noticable amount of) common code, yes of course.

Not for the gentoo devs. Either the upstream does that or OSS-QM.

I'm doing so. Maybe you could give me some quick advise:

How can I get an patch downloaded from some location and then applied ?
I've inspecting some ebuilds in the portage tree and learned how to 
apply patches in the files/ subdir. Now I need to know, how to download
the patches (simply add them to $SRC_URI ?) and then get them referenced
for applying ?
