Was the old one a 32 or 64 bit version? I think the manifest might have the type of exe, so if you were 32 and now 64 then I think the manifest might need updating.

On 32bit versions of windows you can't create a manifest to allow a djgpp version of patch, because it's run under the dos subsystem (64bit doesn't support running old dos apps anyway).
