Looks like patchwork mishandles the pgp signature, the patchwork mbox has

> Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha512;

as the only content-type (and the boundary is nowhere to be found),
while the one in my inbox has

When I remove the Content-Type: line(s) from the mbox from patchwork,
git recognises it again as a patch. I guess git am ignores everything
until the boundary, which got dropped by patchwork, so it never finds
the actual patch.
