​I got  patch from gabor.karsay@gmx.at as attachment ( without a header )
I added a header dep-3 header (manually)

http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep3/

maybe if I would use this result would be better?
$quilt header --dep3 -e

​I will investigate git format-patch ​to understand how to make thing
easier for upstream.
Nevertheless DEP-3 is debian patch header
