Hmph, it may be a feature and a curse depending on the phase of the
moon and what you are using the patch-id computation to see if you
already have an identical change.  But attempting to apply a patch
after applying the same patch with different mode bits will likely
do either the right thing (i.e. taking the mode changes only) or
result in conflict to draw human attention, so this change is a
definite improvement over possibly dropping a change silently.

Good.
