The whole point of "hg export" is that this gives the patch metadata
that says *where* the patch is applied (i.e. at which hg revision).
Unless this is a private commit that is not in the Savannah
repository, it is then impossible for your patch to not apply (well,
impossible unless you found a way to exploit a hash collision in
sha1).

Attached to the bug report is fine. I'll look at it now.
