In fact, I wonder if there are any changes to the patches above at all, just not a reorganization... Basically, by keeping the patches patching the same files, it's easy to see whether they change, and how they change, and when looking back through the CVS logs, what they used to be, without jumping between files constantly. So yes, it may work, but it would be easier on me and others, and possibly you, if it was done in a more consistent manner.
