Yes, I was grepping for callchains, and it appeared none of them actually expected us to feed "log plus --- plus patch" format. The obvious candidate to take it is "am" but we ask mailinfo to do the splitting before the log message part even hits the rest of the system. So my inclination right now is to see if that is truly the case and get rid of that bogus "patch start" thing, and if not, add a flag to let the caller say "I know we only have message" to the callchain.
