If you were to try and patch 2.4.x to 2.6.x you probably have to get a
bunch of 2.4 patches and back them out until you arrived at the version
that was forked to 2.5, than apply all the 2.5 patches and all the the
2.6 patches as well. I'm not even sure that would work.
You're right, just download the tarball.
