PCA can handle those classic 123456-78-style patch IDs only. Even if I 
still had a MOS-account I wouldn't be keen on messing with yet another 
style of patch downloads nowadays.

With some good luck you might not need PCA at all. Maybe it's enough to 
feed the download URL to wget, probably extended with http-user and 
http-passwd options. Or you look at PCA's debug output for a sample wget 
command and just replace the URL.

So, sorry, no chance that I would add support for those patchsets to PCA 
anytime.

Best,
Martin.
