[patch] -ff & multiple -p's

I did a bugfix for a problem discovered by one of my users. The problem 
showed up when he did -ff and then specified multiple -p's on the 
command line. Looking at the source, it was obvious that this was just 
something that the original developer had never thought of. (I wouldn't 
have thought of it either actually. My first thought when I saw the 
problem was, "can you do that?")

Anyway, I wrote a patch that handled that case. It looks like my patch 
will be added to RHEL 4.5 and will probably be fixed in fedora core 
soon. The Red Hat package maintainer asked that I also submit the patch 
to you guys upstream.
