It's documented somewhere, but I forget where, so here's the gist of it:
First, if you don't have the patches folder already, you can add it to the 11/07_1 kitchen by createing a Patches folder and adding PatchDir=Patches to your selections.txt file. 11/07_1 distribution is the first ditribution with support for this feature.
It's really easy to use...put any files you want to overwrite core files in it.
BuildOS will copy those files to the ROM right after hive creation (which is why you can't use this method for rgu changes)
Any file that already exists in the ROM will be overwritten.
For RGU changes to core files, the best mechanism is the same as always...make an OEM with a uuid in the ffffff range.
That's all there is to it.
