First download your otp_15b01 tarrball and untar it.

Get the patch into a file called "zdss.patch"

Notes on how to apply a patch, in case you're interested. You probably already know this.

Put the patch into the top level of your OTP source dir and apply patch.
$ patch -p1 < zdss.patch
Build erlang
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/erlang/R15B01.64bit --enable-vm-probes --with-dynamic-trace=dtrace --enable-darwin-64bit
$ make
$ sudo make install
Add erlang to your path. My build landed in the default place: /usr/local/erlang/R15B01.64bit/bin/erl
I edited by .profile to add /usr/local/erlang/R15B01.64bit/bin to my path. You can also use the install
target to change your destination, but I got lost reading the INSTALL doc - there are SO many variables.
Rebuild your devrel(s) or they won't contain the new erlang beam.
