I've been spending a little time fixing up contributions that I think
are worthwhile - mostly patches that have been broken by the recent

because I broke them ;-) but mostly because I know it helps reduce the
load on committers and because having your patch broken/delayed can be
discouraging for new contributors.
I'm actually a little worried about patches to patches because then the
provenance becomes unclear if there's a problem in the future. Hm.
Which seemed to me to be a fairly reasonable concern.
Yes - ok. I guess there's a difference between a code fix kind of patch
and a "hey, this new build target for ant", but maybe not.
Something to ponder...
