Actually, rebase will try to merge the respective branches and it
will typically succeed, because the post-images are the same. It
will fail due to conflict only if yet another patch has been
applied upstream on top of patch 1.

But that is also how textual changes behave. So for the sake of
consistency, it makes sense to require the pre-images to be the
same. I will resend an appropriate patch tomorrow.
