OpenBSD (4.7-current at least) should drop files if -E parameter is used:
     -E, --remove-empty-files
             Causes patch to remove output files that are empty after the
             patches have been applied.  This option is useful when applying
             patches that create or remove files.

GNU patch (tested on Debian) should support -E also.
