Clarification:

What is called "the final patch" here is just a patch against the
EPEL-specific config file, in which to define the two "testing/4" and
"testing/5" repositories. The small code modifications are used in
production, i.e. Extras pushes with the same code since the same day I
committed the changes (except that it doesn't push to testing at all).
With the modified config file, the scripts can push to testing without
losing track of the stable "4" and "5" repos.

[Previously, the EPEL config file only defined the stable repos 4 and
5, but placed them in the "testing" dir, hiding the real stable
repos. If to access the stable repos (e.g. with repobuild after
deleting packages or moving packages from testing), it would have
needed a second config file, where the paths don't point to the
testing dir.]
