Thanks for testing.

Hmm, looks like the patch exposes another instance of the bug I reported
(but have not investigated yet).

Thanks for the information, I'll try to think of the `---'. Since both
my mailer allows to just pipe patches from mail (and does MIME decoding
if needed), and I'm very used to both that, and also to just reading
patches per mail, I appreciate if this (posting patches, as text) could
remain as habit.
BTW, when I have time I do read already-applied patches; does git
provide a simple way to express that (then I might use it)? Something
like signed-off after applied or so?
Cheers,
Ralf
