makepatch, update-patches, patchtool

We have (at least) three helpers in the ports tree for creating and
updating patch-* files:
* makepatch
bsd.port.mk target, self-contained
* update-patches
bsd.port.mk target, calls Tools/scripts/update-patches
(originally taken from OpenBSD but not synced in a long time)
* patchtool
Tools/scripts/patchtool.py
Is it time to trim some of those? I'm under the impression that
"makepatch" is currently the favored one. Any reason to keep the
others?
