I didn't understood what happened. some chunks from patch 7569 were wrongly merged on 7571.

I suspect that it is a trouble on my local copy of the -git tree. git fsck is
generating 3434 lines of errors.

I've did a diff between the applied patch and the original ones. It is not easy
to compare the diffs manually, since file order changes, but it seems that the
other patches are ok.

I'll just drop this -git and create another replica.

Matthias, Patrick and others,

sorry for the mess.

Cheers,
Mauro
