    You could script it pretty easily, this would back out the
    patches in the reverse order you added them (to avoid problems
    with dependencies):

    cd /patch/dir
    set patches = ( `cat patch_order` )

    set n = $#patches

    while ( n > 0 )
            patchrm $patches[n]
            @ n = n - 1
    end
