Oops, looking back I realized that I remembered it incorrectly: The issue
was that the file couldn't get applied because the *patch* had Windows
lineendings. Not sure how that happened but anyway I stand corrected.

Indeed, that was the case.

I added the full file variation.c as an attachment. It belongs at
source/texk/web2c/luatexdir/luaharfbuzz/src/luaharfbuzz/variation.c

and again your variation.c attached has Windows line endings.

Anyway, variation.c from variation.c.patch is ok, it is the same of luaharfbuzz-master .

In general Windows line endings are not a problem for me, because I am used to run dos2unix before.

The default diff (i.e. without ignoring blanks) is annoying because it says that all the lines differ,

and I don't run diff -b because spaces matter in comments .

Committed revision 7447.
