Found with fd \\.patch$ pkgs/ -x bash -c 'rg -F "{/}" pkgs/ -q || echo {}'

The only false positives seem to be the godot3-mono-glue patch, which has a ${version} in the file name, and the flutter patches in pkgs/development/compilers/flutter/patches/, which are fetched with builtins.readDir.

Should be good if ofborg claims 0 rebuilds

I went through the file history of all the patches that were modified less than a year ago. Nearly all were just forgotten to remove when their reference was deleted. The gcc patches were moved and refactored recently (911452c), I've verified they weren't referenced before. I'd say patches older than a year won't be missed if they're not referenced anywhere.
