Well, in case anyone thinks it would be helpful, here's a quick patch
for Makefile.common to add a few convenient targets (get-sources and
get-patches, as well as get-source-% and get-patch-%, which can be
used to grab selected source and patch files, respectively):

I found that spectool currently has a bug if you try to pass multiple
source or patch numbers.  The spectool help says --source x,y is
accepted, but it is not.  The option parsing code enforces the value
passed to --source and --patch be an integer.  A trivial fix for this
may be:
