+Usage: ${myname} <dir> <base> <inc> [sed_re]
+    Will renumber all patches found in 'dir', starting at 'base', and with
+    an increment of 'inc'.
+    If 'sed_re' is given, it is interpreted as a valid sed expression, and
+    it will be applied to the patch name.
+    If the environment variable FAKE is set to 'y', then the command will
+    only be printed, and not executed (so you can check beforehand).
+    Eg.:
+      patch-renumber.sh patches/gcc/4.3.1 100 10
+      patch-renumber.sh patches/gcc/4.2.4 100 10 's/(all[_-])*(gcc[-_])*//;'
