These queries are sort of irrelevant here, still I will throw my
suggestions if they help:

* In case you want to check if any builds are still available check koji[1]
* I could not find any builds available there for 0.9.8m
* So, in case you really need(for whatever purpose) 0.9.8m (which is
not latest available or was never build) you select of one previous
release available srpm is ok (In case 0.9.8k is previous version).
* You will need to adjust patches yourself based on 1) whether they
are needed 2) Whether they are already included upstream 3) Any new
patches for new needs specific to m version.
