That's probably just a consequence of the changes to loch/Makefile not
getting applied (since that's where those libraries are specified),
which is probably because some earlier patch in the huge pile we're now
carrying also changed that area of that file.

If you look at loch/Makefile.rej, you can probably make the required
changes to loch/Makefile by hand.

Alternatively, applying all the patches in the order given in the series
file should work - you can get quilt to do that with:

QUILT_PATCHES=/path/to/debian/patches quilt push -a
