They are only picked up if the ebuild specifically calls epatch_user
function.
However, you can define this in your /etc/portage/bashrc to have
appended to all ebuilds (who don't already define this function):
post_src_prepare() {
epatch_user
}
then it will call it after it does its normal patching...
For example, I dropped a patch from BGO for xloadimage to make it build
against new libtiff into
/etc/portage/patches/media-gfx/xloadimage-4.1-r11 and emerge, I see this
in emerge output:
