How about source patches?  If you include them in-line, instead
of attaching them, their whitespace can get mangled (tabs turned
into spaces, lines broken in the middle), and that'll keep them
from applying cleanly.  Admittedly, this might be more an issue
over on amanda-hackers (in fact I learned about this from
one-time Amanda maintainer Alexandre Oliva, who refused to accept
patches *unless* they were sent as attachments).

When I came back around from the dark side, there in front of me would
be the landing area where the crew was, and the Earth, all in the view
of my window. I couldn't help but think that there in front of me was
all of humanity, except me.
