Yeah, I agree that this shouldn't have happened.
It's not the end of the world. People that pull from kvmarm/master will
almost always rebase their trees, and the rebase will discard the
duplicate patches.
The big problem with rebasing happens if you _drop_ patches. In that
case, whoever rebases will keep the patch that you dropped, and most
likely will not notice.
