My nmfirehose script flagged the patch as not applying, and I verified
this (and all of them) by hand, using the emacs interface to save the
patch. No, I'm not intentionally tagging patches stale if they apply,
but I'll stop for now in case there's a bug somewhere (incl. PEBKAC)
breaking the patches and thus making them not apply.

I was doing this purely based on whether the patches apply or not.
