At least patch2 has incorret index information; it does not apply with am

Do you have rerere enabled at this point?

	git config rerere.enabled true

Same here.

For me, it works as expected, i.e., I get the conflict resolved by rerere.

Perhaps:

$ git config --global -l | grep rerere
rerere.enabled=true
