That error message is expected, well, at least if the patch is outdated
(or appears to be for TortoiseMerge):
TortoiseMerge tries to find TortoiseProc to download the correct version
of the file to do a three-way merge. Only if that fails, you'll get the
"the patch seems outdated" error. But in your 32-bit case, it can't find
the 32-bit TortoisProc binary and that's the error you're seeing here.
Which means it's the same problem as before...

That won't help much.

Hmm - if it's on CodePlex it means it's free stuff:
please zip the patchfile and send it here, including the info about
which project you're trying to apply the patch to (url for checkout,
which revision is your working copy on).
That way I can reproduce the problem
