FYI, git apply considers a trailing blank line,
such as the one at the end of the hunk above,
to be a "whitespace error".

I use --whitespace=strip, which causes git to delete it
upon checkin.  However, that causes the 4th patch in
this series, which appents to this file, to not apply.

Please don't send patches with trailing blank lines.
In this case, the blank should come as a "preceeding"
blank line in the 4th patch...

thanks,
