Well, I chatted with Tor a bit in IRC, and found out that there are
several special sections that automatically get applied *after* all the
other normal patches get applied, and the Binfilter sections
(BFBuildBits, BFFixes, and BFShrink) are just one of those special
sections.  And they can be anywhere in the apply file, and still get
applied at the end...

To be completely honest I find it a bit confusing (that the patch order
jump like that), but at least I know why it jumps.

After having that cleared up, I've managed to get past the patch apply
phase.  I'm now going to build the thing to see if it actually builds...
