Details:

>From http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.wget.patches/2140 , where the
ChangeLog entries for this and another patch may be found.

patch-utils changes the file renaming mechanism when
the -nc option is in effect.  Instead of trying to
rename  a file to file.1, file.2 etc, it tries
prefix-1.suffix, prefix-2.suffix etc, thus preserving
the filename extension if any.  This is necessary to
avoid a bug otherwise when the -A option is used:
renamed files are rejected because they don't match
the required suffix, although they should really be
kept.
