None of them.

These patches are unmainted so, may not apply AS IS, by any method.

First, you shouldn't need the HAL patch for the ethernet driver.
Second, you should use a cvs.
Third, you should apply the patch by hand when it fails, eventually
you will have to patch the patch.

But even with this I can't guarantee you will succeed.

No, in fact there is a problem, i should have corrected it (and now I
won't), but you can do it very easily. The problem is (was?) that the
RedHat cvs server had a bug so that I produced incomplete filenames in
the patch. 

You can apply the attached perl script to fix a first problem

(
You can apply directly with something like:
  tr -d '\r' < hal-i386-pc.patch | FixPath.pl | patch -p0  -d
  /d/john/ecos/packages
)
