I just looked into Julia's email headers, and it says:

  Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed

flowed? for the patch? :) That's not right.

Documentation/email-clients.txt says:

  Don't send patches with "format=flowed".  This can cause unexpected
  and unwanted line breaks.

:-P

As for why it applied fine for you, your mailer probably automatically
decodes the content, but I apply mbox file directly. (If I '<ESC>-C' the
email in mutt, then it also applies for me, but I normally don't do that.)
