    xdelta3 -d -s crash.iso gaplessu101iso.vcdiff gapless.iso

If you have BIN/CUE (SHA1: e3be92c014f115b63db844042977e9719d0d5048), you can
convert it to ISO like so:
    ./xa2352to2048.py <crash.bin >crash.iso

- Applying the patch manually -
Use the patcher.py script:
    ./patcher.py crash.iso gapless.iso

It could work on other versions of the game, but we haven't tested it.

- Other tools -
cortex_sfx_extract.py: extracts the contents of sfx.dat 
cortex_sfx_rebuild.py: rebuilds sfx.dat (uses index.txt)
These two tools could be adapted for editing other dat files on the disk.
