That was a band-aid for an ill-thought-out orderfile misfeature to
hide the breakage.  You somehow make sure that you pass the same
orderfile to diff generating machinery used internal to patch-id
generation.  The standalone "git patch-id" would be reading the
patch in the order you give it when you are feeding a patch somebody
sent you via the mailing list using an order unknown to you, no?

Before making it _easier_ to use the orderfile to generate diffs, we
would need to prepare the parts that will be broken by wider use of
the feature.
