Interesting. For some reason the patch can't be applied with a single
command (diff-ediff-patch is unable to figure out the target files, but
Apply Hunk works fine; that's an issue to be discussed on the emacs ml,
though.) Anyway this is more convenient than extracting the patch and
applying it from a shell.

Precisely, I was expecting to see a Babel module for diffs but writing
one for this task is overkill. A function that extracts the current
block, creates a patch and runs `patch' on it will do too and seems like
an easy one to write. Will go down that route if the issue with
diff-ediff-patch can't be fixed.
Thank you Chuck.
