Well that gives a pretty solid assurance that the patch you downloaded matches the one on kernel.org. And that one doesn't contain an mlguest.c. Ketchup doesn't even look inside patches, and patch doesn't invent names, so something in the bzip2 -> patch(1) -> filesystem chain got corrupted. Probably not bzip2, as it has CRCs.
