Uy. Unfortunately, those FAILED lines probably mean that you need to 
reconcile the patch with those files by hand in order to make it work 
*correctly*.

If it works for you, cool; unfortunately, I suspect that even though 
it compiled without errors, it doesn't actually do all the right 
things. Having code that compiles without errors is akin to saying 
that your essay has no spelling errors: it's important, but it doesn't 
guarantee that whats in there makes any sense.

If you're not much of a C programmer, you can try applying the two 
patches in reverse order (i.e. apply the trash patch first, and the 
sidebar patch second), or you can try asking the author of the trash 
patch to fix it for you.
