In other words, even the original author's head exploded without looking
at extra context lines around the patch.

It is a sure sign that the original implementation was too scantily
described, and that the fix was not explained well in the proposed commit
log message (i.e. in what corner cases the original was bad in what way,
and how the patch fixes it).

I shouldn't have to decipher the original and the fixed version with
pencil and paper when re-reviewing Dscho's Ack.
