I think the issue is much older than that.  The faulty one is 4be6096
(apply --unidiff-zero: loosen sanity checks for --unidiff=0 patches,
2006-09-17), which incorrectly loosened the match_beginning/match_end
computation too much, whose botch may have been hidden by what the
surrounding code did.

And 65aadb9 (apply: force matching at the beginning., 2006-05-24) is
equally wrong in that it tried to take hints from leading context lines,
to decide if the hunk must match at the beginning, but in this case we
can just look at the line number in the hunk to decide.

How about doing this?
